I've worn Vans most of my adult life, but now in my mid-forties, I needed a wider fit. I am so happy they make these! Please make more colors!

This shoe is amazing. It's very hard to find shoes my size (16) and wide so I bought a pair as soon as I saw that Vans was offering them for sale. I couldn't believe that my feet actually had room and wasn't pinching on the sides of my foot and are super comfortable. This is one of the best shoes that I have bought yet!

I really wish stores would carry wide sized Vans. I would have them in every color and style I'd they did. Love my Vans shoes.

These are so comfortable! My only complaint is that Vans doesn't make all of their shoes available in wide sizes.

My husband has been wearing Vans for decades. He has wide flat feet and these are super comfortable. We actually bought two pairs to stock up!

A wider width for VANS is so comfortable! I wish they were available in a more diverse collection of colors. Any colors would be amazing!

Love it. I've been off the "off the wall" wagon for a minute since I wanted to start wearing shoes that fit my foot a little bit better (wide-toe box shoes). I had been wearing Altras for my everyday shoes. great shoes, but overly dorky. I missed the style of my old schools but didn't want to sacrifice my comfort. When I saw Van's was making the old schools and a few others in a wide version, I was excited but cautious. I ordered, put them on, and they are excellent. They fit great and aren't too narrow for a long day's wear. My only gripe? I want MORE! More colors, more styles! Make em all in Wide now too PLEASE! xoxo

I bought the wide fit since the regular style tends to be snug on my feet but these are very spacious. I got them to primarily wear for working out and they give great support for my lifts. Very comfortable.

Not many place have a wide canvas shoe! So when I got them I was really impressed with how comfortable they were and they fit my feet perfect. They worked out fine

I have been wearing vans for years and I love them, but always feel like there's not enough toe space. These wide vans are by far the comfiest ones I have tried!! I hope to see the wide sizing introduced in other colors and styles as well.

I was just looking for a different look in footwear than everyone else, was tired of looking at everyone else and seeing the same shoe on their feet as I was wearing, this fits the bill well! I have only worn them a few times so far liking them a lot!

Most comfortable shoes I own for day to day. Not my choice for long hikes or gym work, but for casual wear they are very comfortable. I will buy more.
I'd also recommend:
ASICS, Brooks, Nike

Competed in my first deadlift meet. Wide Vans performed flawlessly. Good grip, stable flat base and great for balance. These shoes would not work as walking shoes for me but they work well for weightlifting. I would try other Vans models if they came in wide. So please, more colors and models in wide.

Thankfully Vans are available in a wide width again. A Vans wide is probably the equivalent of an EE width, and they fit me perfectly. More colors please!

I tend to be a 10.5 on average. These 11s wides are perfect for me and my orthotics! Who would have thought the wide foot person with orthotics can be stylish in vans again. Fits well, no complaints. Fits flat like a pair of vans. If you aren’t going with orthotics, probably it is true to size.

Let me preface that I am 30 and have strictly been wearing vans since I was 16. I have extremely flat feet and most shoes don't fit. Regular fans are already pretty flat but they tended to hurt wearing them for long periods of time. These wides are an absolute game changer! So much more comfortable and fit way better. Please please please don't even think about discontinuing these! I'd love to see more color ways and other models in these especially the skate specific ones!

I love these shoes! For YEARS I've been suffering the pain caused by ill-fitting shoes... over a variety of brands. So, when I found out that Vans had wide-fitting shoes, I had to try them.
Once they arrived, which was surprisingly fast, I was excited and eager to put them on. I was amazed at how much room there was and how my toes were able to sit naturally without feeling cramped together like passengers on a New York subway during rush hour.
I'm ABSOLUTELY going to get myself another pair or two (or FIVE) in the not-too-distant future!!

I love the shoes!!! I am a little concerned with how well and for how long they'll hold up. I've had them for a week or two and I'm a rather large women so I got the wide width and couldn't be more happy about that!!!!
