Customer Reviews Vans UltraRange™ EXO

I really wanted some comfier shoes with a little more support since I like the Van's look so much. These ain't it. I'm sure someone with calloused ankles or ankle guards are ok with them but not myself. I'm returning them promptly.

The sole is so stiff, there is no cushion like my older ultraranges. Breaks my heart. The shoe has no structure, looks horrible. I will only buy them if they start making them the way they used to. Cmon Vans don't make me lose total hope :(

Both shoes tore straight down the middle of the inner sides after 3 months of wear. Comfortable but I shouldn't have palm sized tears in them after THREE MONTHS for A HUNDRED BUCKS

Ok, so, right off the bat, I'll go ahead and say that I'm an orthopedic doctor in Brazil, and as a healthcare professional, I've discouraged the use of Van's shoes for years, due to the poor arch support and comfort, which could lead to feet pain, especially plantar fasciitis. I've got these ultrarange exos as a gift, from my girlfriend, who really loves this brand, and she wanted me to change my opinion with this especific model, which promises good arch support and comfort for long periods. To be honest, I did change my opinion. I always imagined that the Vans would at least offer well made products with good quality control. But I was very disappointed with these shoes, for their poor quality control, I honestly had higher expectations within this price range. When I first put them on, I actually thought that my opinion was changed, but after using them for 1 week, I realized that the right shoe just fit different from the left one, and my right foot started to hurt pretty bad, the longer I wore the shoe. It feels like my right ankle is being twisted outwards. Also, on the site (vans.com.br), it's described that the insoles aren't removable, but mine are. And boy do they look cheap, so cheap that it actually looks fake put some pictures down here, they look nothing like the ultra Cush in some other vans models. Anyway, if that's not enough, I've filed a complaint to the store I bought them in, and for 2 weeks now, had no reply. As doctor, from now on, will keep on NOT recommending Vans, not only for the poor anatomic support for your feet, but also because the quality in this product is not worth your money.

This show was a huge disappointment. It is not comfortable and very cheaply made. Very thin and no support. Feet hurt all day wearing them. Do not recommend.

I purchased the white and black color way after having a really good experience with a different colorway. I purchased this back in November and today, January 22nd, the sole became separated from the shoe. I wear these shoes in the office, so it is very minimal walking around and after only 3 months this happened. It's a shame as I really enjoyed the previous pair for years.

Product look is good but after using it for the only a couple of times.. not more than 10 times, the back strap got undone and ripped from the heel. Other vans i got Vr3 ultrarange also start to get with issues in the the sole of the sneakers where it is detached. Both shoes were not often used and are driving early problems like cheap sneakers. Quality is at risk due to cheaper materials.

These are definitely not for running. I bought these as a new and inexperienced runner and went to join the track team. Had to leave early because my coach said these shoes would hurt my foot instead of help. Also my heel was totally scraped and bleeding. DO NOT BUY

I bought this model for myself like 3 years ago, the quality and how comfortable the shoes are is amazing. I thought about gifting them to my boyfriend for Christmas. Unfortunately, they are now using cheaper materials and in general the shoes don't look or feel the same as they were making it initially. Also, the fact they run small and that 14 is not available is disappointing.

I bought these shoes originally a few years ago and loved them!! I still wear them everywhere!! I bought a new pair in a different color and they are AWFUL. I'm returning them. The ankle portion now has a hard thing in them that rubs terribly against your heel. I don't know why they changed the design, but it's not nearly as good!!! Please go back to the old design because those were a dream!

Worn vans for a decade. Have vans that have lasted that long. Got the ultrarange exo STRICTLY for work, a month ago. Haven't worn them for anytime longer than my work shift. Not even during lunch when i leave the store. Glue on one shoe is already coming apart.

These shoes fit so well and are incredibly comfortable, but after just over 60 days of owning them and not even wearing them every day, they have started falling apart. The soles are separating, the color is peeling off of the soles, and I am absolutely bummed because I wanted to love these shoes!

I have owned these for 2 months and I will never buy another pair of Vans because of these shoes. Horribly uncomfortable. After 2 hours, my arch is screaming. The rubberized bits on the upper are peeling off. The sides of the sole looks like it's been chewed on and I already have a hole forming where the shoe creases on top from walking. Absolute trash

One of the insoles was about 2 inches too short. The standard internal packaging Vans normally ships wasn't present. Shoes looked returned!

There is a seem right in the middle of the heel cuff. So even though the shoe fits well and my heel doesn't slip, there is some irritation when walking, even when wearing a thicker sock. The tongue also has an odd square cushion in the middle of it. Honestly the whole shoe seems oddly designed. I returned to the UltraRange line because I loved having a vans fit with a more walk friendly shape in the past, but these definitely fell below my expectations. These shoes aren't worth it, even on sale!

I bought these for my 13 yo son. I bought the first pair right before school started and they separated from the sole before 60 days so I sent them back. Ordered them again and both shoes are wearing a hole in the fabric. Not durable.

Used for walking. Kind of a sloppy soft feeling that leaves my feet tired. Too thin.

It took 4 months to get the first hole on the side I love how how comfortable they are, but really disappointed how they last.

Shoes were smaller. Next time I need to size up

Bought these for a trip to Asia. First wear, 2 mile walk in my neighborhood, wore no show Vans socks, rubbed my Achilles raw. Girl friend of mine has a pair and had same issue with friction blisters. Nothing can make up for how bad the label section of the shoe is. My friend and I both have stained blood on the back of our shoes. Achilles beware!!

Overall disappointed with how quickly they fell apart. I've had them for 2 months and already they have holes in the sides and the soles are separating. I've loved vans my whole life, so I know eventually there will be some wear and tear, but I didn't expect them to die on me so quickly. Not worth the money.

Bought these in March. By June the outer sides of the toes are were fraying and ripping open on both shoes. They're too expensive for the quality.

I have worn Vans for 15 years and this is the first shoe that was of poor durability. I wore them one-three times a week and a hole developed on the right.

I bought my EXOs almost 3 months ago and only use them for work (my job is pretty sedentary). But they're starting to fall apart already! The sole on my left shoe is separating from the rest of the shoe. These shoes were the most expensive Vans I've ever bought and definitely the worst quality. They look and feel nice, but I'm so disappointed that they've fallen apart so quickly and easily and I spent so much on them.
