Undecided on this shoe as of now. The elastic is bothering me on the top of the shoe. I keep looking for a piece of tag or something but there is nothing there. The shoe itself is incredibly cute. Sole is stiff and no arch support, but not uncomfortable. I want to love these because they are cute. I am hoping the elastic will loosen up. I'm going to have to go with 3 stars because of the comfort factor.

I returned these. Not comfortable at all, and feel very heavy when walking. Too bad because they look good.

It's such a cute shoe!! I wish I could make it work. I have bought this shoe from two different places and have had to return both pairs do to fit issues. One pair was way to small and one pair is too narrow. It's bummer. I've worn Vans for many years and this is the first production issue I've run across. I have the same pair in a perforated White leather, I bought this summer and have zero issues. Just be careful with this one.

It is stiff. Rubs raw in certain spots. Might break in, but might not. Not sure it's worth keeping.

I LOVED these shoes, but the toe box was too low for me and rubbed on my big toenail. It broke my little heart, but I had to return them.

It's a shoe that is obviously made for unisex sizing. In closed toe shoes I most often take an 11, but the 11's were way too big on me. Wide and long. I'll be returning.

If you have a tall arch, or toenails that turn up like mine - fuggedaboudit, your foot will not be comfortable in these. Also they provide no support. They are OK for a teenager with no clue but for me? I need cushioning and support. They are very cute, though.

Great looking shoe, loved the convenience of the slip on, but not as comfortable as I wanted. The top part of the shoe by the ankle pinches after a while and the plastic thread is irritating.

For some reason, the black on black checkered Vans slip-ons fit much smaller than this shoe model in all the other colors that I have tried. I have ordered gray and black checkered slip-ons and blue and blue checkered slip-ons - all from Zappos, but the two times that I have ordered black on black I could barely fit my feet into them. I love this shoe model, and would try them again in a fourth color, but I do not recommend this color because the fit is much smaller than the fit typically is for this model.

I love the style but felt much tighter on my feet than other vans classic slip-ons. I returned them as I was concerned that they would end up giving me several blisters on my upper heels as the leather wrap around the back of the shoe was uncomfortable to me.

I couldn't figure out how to edit my review, but I felt it was fair to add a star. After I spent some money on "Heavenly Heelz" pads and padded the vamp and the collar, the embossed leather slip-ons are much more comfortable. They squeak if I wear them barefoot now with the pads, but what can you do...I will now be wearing them with the Smartwool Secret Sleuth socks, which are awesome and can be found right here on Zappos, by the way. Anyhow, I'm appeased and pleased now because I will be able to were them on vacation. Yay!

This is the second set of these Vans I've owned. Only difference was color. Style and size (10.5) are the same, only this pair doesn't fit properly and the first set fit great. Even after wearing for two weeks, they don't fit properly. Vans must have changed something or maybe they were mis-labeled.

Good looking shoes online. I normally wear an 8 or 8.5, so ordered the 6.5/8 size. The shoe was large enough I'll have to try a smaller size. But it feels nice and cushioned and the width is plenty wide, which I like. I have worn Converse as well and those tend to be very narrow for my feet.

We purchased these for my granddaughter. She has worn them maybe six times. The sole and shoe have came apart!

Loved these shoes from day-1, but am super disappointed that they are falling apart after only 6 months. The perf leather is a cool look, but not durable. I only walk in them—no rough wear, skateboarding etc. and the leather is coming away from the rubber. Big bummer.

I love the way these look, they're my first Vans and probably my last. I ordered a women's 6/men's 4.5 based on the reviews that they ran big. They don't, had to return them for a women's 7/men's 6.5 which was too big, and finally got the women's 6.5/mens 5 and my normal size - with fit fine, felt good just walking around the room in. But alas, they ripped a hug hole in my skin on the back of my left ankle the first time I walked more than 1/2 a block in them - wore with socks, and I don't want to wear them again. BOO. Sneakers shouldn't give you blisters like that.

This shoe is obviously built on a unisex platform. The length was fine, but the shoe is too tall for my foot, and just generally sloshy.

Been wearing these for years, but this is my first pair with very sharp seams under the "tongue." Looks like there's some glue on the seam or maybe melted nylon. Very painful when worn without socks. I'm sure this is just a fluke, since other pairs don't have this. But still...

I have no complaints about this shoe. I just wanted to let people know that this coral color is very pink (almost hot pink). When I put it next to a bright pink shirt it was almost identical. Also, it's not as washed looking as it seems in the picture. I am returning them, but will just look for another color. Thanks to Zappos for making returns easy!

This shoe runs big. And wide. I have wide feet, and this shoe had plenty of room. I am a 7, and could have used a 6.5 (or even a 6) in this shoe. They made my feet look gigantic, and the red was very clownish. Not a good look. Maybe black or gray, in a half size smaller would be okay. I have Chuck Taylors that are more stylish and more comfortable.

I've been rediscovering Vans more recently after wearing many older styles back in the day. I've had pair of classic slip-ons in gray in 9.5 and they've been great. I just received these Chambray Black slip-ons in 9.5 and they felt noticeable larger where I was stepping out of the shoe. Small sample size, but definitely a discrepancy in 9.5's. Not sure if it's the Chambray Blacks I just received or my old gray ones.

Umm...first, this shoe is stylish. Very cool look & color (I got the black & Pewter, but the shoe was more of a midnight blue). However, I would rate this as a quite uncomfortable shoe! I read the reviews of this shoe & how comfortable it is but I didn't feel it. If this is a super comfy shoe, I cringe to think of the types of shoes other reviewers are used to! Admittedly it's an inexpensive shoe, but still! Also there is not much arch support to speak of & the soles are hard rubber and I could totally feel them when walking around. Finally I couldn't get the size right for my feet. I order the 12s and they were too small, then I sent those back & got the 13s, but they were slightly too big. I assume if these were lace shoes I wouldn't have that problem (just tighten the laces up a bit), but as they were I didn't keep them. Too bad, because I am looking for a semi casual shoe to wear to work when I don't have to see clients. Maybe I'll try another Van - laces this time. As always, Zappos was top notch & took care of shipping, returns without a hitch.

These are my son's favorite shoes. Wish they were made a little better. The rubber around the toe starts coming loose after a month of wear at best. Fortunately the adhesive doesn't completely fail and you can still wear the shoes. I would have given them 5 stars overall if they used a better adhesive.

Was disappointed that these shoes were too big by about a half size. Initially, I still wore them dispite the extra toe room, but then got a blister. Not sure if I'll wear them anymore

The shoes look good and feel great, but the durability is pretty crappy. After only two months of near-daily wear, the rubber is already cracking in places, and the stitching on the upper is already starting to come undone. Maybe I'm just used to more durable shoes, but this seems pretty poor.
