Sharp look and nice overall fit. My only small beef is I wish they would have been stuffed with brown paper to help keep their shape. I stuffed them myself because the material is different than your average Vans and I want keep them looking dazzling.

I had the experience that the slip-ons fit way small. I usually wear a 10, but I could not even get my foot in to a 10. I am going to have to order a full size (at least) larger.

Neat looking shoe but not for someone with high arch. Literally could not get my foot in as the elastic gores don't stretch enough. Love the look of these classic shoes though.

I've had these shoes for about a month and overall I really like them...I thought I would love them. I bought them because of the very creative cheetah design (which I get tons of compliments on) and the fact that they are easy to wear. The problem is because they are a unisex shoe they are a little wide and clunky (putting inserts in has helped). By the way, I wear a 9M. They still feel roomy but I guess I've gotten used to it because I seem to wear them a lot.

Love these shoes! I wear vans all the time and the leather doesn't breathe like the canvas but they are great for cooler weather. My only mini complaint is that the snake pattern doesn't match on both shoes.

I just received the overwashed black/checker Vans in 6½/women. They are a smidge big, but not enough to size down. I think they will fit perfectly if I wear them with socks. I am exchanging them because the pair that I got were defective, laughably so. At the heel, the rubber ends were too long, so they overlapped by a good half inch and then they just slapped the Vans tag over the gigantic bump, as if this would hide the glaring defect. I kind of cannot believe this made it out of the warehouse. I am hoping it is just a one-off situation, because I really like this style/color combination.

Of all the trendy slip-ons I've tried this year Vans are my favorite. They do look somewhat manly. The only drawback. So unless you have cute skinny legs they're better worn with pants/jeans. Definitely order half size down.

These are really cute. I previously bought the cotton (not leather) ones, and found those to be more comfortable. I think these are breaking in, and hopefully in time they'll be just as comfortable as my old ones. One other thing, the leather starts to crease pretty quickly.

Love these shoes. I wanted something that was easy to slip on and off, and had an element of fun. They're super comfy (could use a little more arch support). Luckily they're too small for my daughter or she would steal them.

Really comfortable, fit the same as my other tie-up Vans and I ordered the same size. They have a small slice of elastic at the top of the tongue to help provide some give to get your foot into them, but I usually have to smush down the heal fabric to slide my foot in. They were a little snug at first but have stretched a touch and fit well now. It's a little tricky getting anything thicker than a gym sock into them because the sock bunches up as you're sliding you're foot in.

Super cute styling, but runs a bit big. I wear a 10 typically and the 10 W (8.5 M) was very wide and big for my foot. I sized down and the 9.5 W worked. Arch support is not that great, but with room for my orthotics these will work!

These are ridiculously cute shoes, I love them. You do need to break them in, the back rubs a blister on your heel when you first get them so bandaid up with your new pair!

Love these Vans! They are so stylish, yet affordable. The leather look is great for work! Fit true to size. Takes a few times to break them in completely.

I'm writing this review based on my experience with other Vans Slip-Ons. They are stylish shoes, easy to get in and out of and easy to love. I've had maybe 5-6 different pairs of Vans Slip-Ons. However, they are a lot like sandals in that support is minimal. While they are great for skating if you don't need the support, they're not "athletic" shoes per se. I used to buy Vans Slip-Ons size 10. However, the latest batches of Slip-On I feel run half a size too small. I have't used the newest pair I bought (Pewter/Gumsole) because they fit too tight. I've been trying to exchange them for a size 10.5 for over 2 months now but with no luck as it seems Zappos never has a size 10.5 in stock and they refuse to backorder. I'm going to give them another week and if they still don't have stock I'll likely return them altogether and source a pair in 10.5 from elsewhere. I can't wait to use these as I've been waiting for Vans to release a gumsole Slip-On for the longest time.

Love the look of this shoe. A little wide because they are a unisex shoe. Other than that, super cute for a causal weekend look at a great price point.

Super cute basic slip ons. I liked the regular black leather version but *everyone* has them, so I thought the patent ones would be a nice alternative. I am a true 7.5 medium width, and I found the 7.5 slip ons to be TTS, although pretty wide. Going half size down wouldn't have fit length wise, so I kept the 7.5s.

Great great shoe but one complaint, it does have limitations when it comes to durability. I work at a call center and this is a great for comfort at the workplace. Caution: The sides by the tongue of the shoe are flimsy when it comes to the construction of the shoe so it starts to come apart very easily. Keep in mind I only work at a call center and I sit all day, and it's not like I put a lot of stress on the shoe so it is a little bit of a downer that they aren't that durable. A good shoe if your looking for comfort for 8 to 10 months max and for a great price as well. To sum up, excellent comfort, flexibility, and don't forget how awesome it feels to walk underneath the waffle tread. Only complaint durability.

Love the look and super comfortable! They do run a bit small. If I had to do it all over, I'd have ordered a half size up. They do stretch out over time but I'd still order them a bit roomier.

Way too narrow for wide feet! We thought we would try to see if these could work for my 13 year old's wide feet. But Vans run narrow and he couldn't even get on the medium width. Vans should make their shoes for wides too!

Love these shoes! They look great casual or dressed up. The fabric is a lot tighter than the traditional canvas Vans, and does take a little longer to wear in but they're definitely worth it!

I love these shoes but the size really varies per pair anymore. I have been wearing 11.5's for years. Now I have to order the same pair more than once to get the correct fit since they vary so much. Zappos is great though.

I thought the shoes were a little smaller than my normal size. I had to return the first pair for a size larger. Zappos handled the process great.

I have a pair of Vans B/W Checkers, size 10.5, for 3 years. Finally decided to get a new pair - this time the same but color Red/White and also size 10.5. I got the shoes today, LOOKING GREAT!! But it feels small and tight compared to the old pair which I actually wear with insole. The old pair feels MUCH more roomy. I don't know if the size has changed, or if the Chinese factory is trying to save money - but this is a definitely smaller 10.5 than the original which is made in Thailand. I'm going to send back and ask for size 11.
