Good shoe... The only problem that I had with these shoes is that after only 2 days of normal use, the white rubber stipe thing on the bottome started peeling off. Other than that it's great.

A nice look to the shoe. However I find the tongue too short and not enough padding on the sole.

Old school - I love the look of these shoes. They do remind me when I was a kid. Not a lot of padding in them for comfort. Besides that I love these shoes.

Rockin look, NOT for skating in - These shoes look totally awsome, feel pretty good when your not SKATIN in them. The sole sticks to the board like its got glue on it. The sides hold up pretty good, but just not worth the pain of the board hitting these little padded shoes. I recomend these for shoes, just not for core skater shoes. And they kinda flop around, even though you have them really tight, and I have somewhat WIDE feet.

2nd pair in 4 years - Cheap, attractive, comfortable shoe. Not for playing basketball but a good all round daily shoe. I wear mine to work everyday!

Take a timewarp back to the eighties with these babies - The ultimate in retro-cool skating shoes. Oh so comfy with great grip and flexability; a pity they don't last that long when you DO skate in them.

Vans32 - I am really enjoying my vans old school schools I recently purchased. I like the look and find that they go well with everyday outfits. Although considering how much they cost I might have expected a little more comfort although I wouldn't say that they are uncomfortable. I would not considering returing them however. Also I was impressed with the convenient returning and fast shipping of Zappos.com. Thank you.

Old Skool, New coolness - One reason I picked Old Skool was because of the groovy patterns available- I chose Tropical Leaf. These shoes are well made and easy to clean. They look great too. The only problem was that the 'Off The Wall' Insignia on the heel soon faded off my pair. Otherwise, these are attractive street shoes with wide appeal.

absolutely no arch support; if I could have replaced the insoles, I would have kept. Insoles are glued down

The shoes look cool and fit well but the description makes no mention of the nylon side panels. Interested how they will hold up compared to the canvas, suede and leather versions I've had over the years.

Well.... if I were looking for grey which I wasn't. They would be perfect. According to the picture the shoes look beige and cream color. I took them out of the box and they look grey.

The color of the shoe is a solid brown not two tone. Came unlaced, creases in the shoe material that cannot be fixed. Poor packaging the box even was dented.

Shoes are well made, heavier canvas than standard old skools. Color is not like the picture. Much lighter and more purple than shown. I had to return them because I won't wear purple shoes.

I got these to replace my Vans ComfyCush that are now discontinued. My feet were aching after just walking around my house in them. Ridiculously uncomfortable. I can stand for 8 hours in ComfyCush and I could barely manage 20 minute in these. Returning

I know this style is very popular and I was willing to try them since they were on sale. I have found them to NOT be very comfortable, because there's little padding in the insole of the shoe. The "antler" color is more of a lilac color than brown, as the picture reflects. I'm glad I did not pay full price for them.
