Sorry I had to return these shoes because I loved the pattern and the look, however they were too high at the ankle. They hit on my ankle bone , rubbed when I walked and were uncomfortable. I really hated not keeping them.

I found these to be way too heavy. The leather looks good but I forgot how heavy it is compared to modern materials. They were comfortable.

I wear these for work and am on my feet a lot. They just aren't as comfortable as I had hoped. They are really cute and I wish I liked how they felt better!

Love the way they look. Normally I don't have to buy the wide style but these shoes I should have. They hurt my feet after a couple hours. :(

We liked them, no bad comments as far as that. There is nothing that we didn't like about them..

I thought these were the same construction as the Skate Old Skools. They most definitely are not. These don't have the same cushion, sole, etc. They look great. I don't think they are a bad shoe - not at all. I just like the extra midsole height on the Skates and the extra cushion in the insole on the Skates. These Old Skools feel a bit more flimsy like a Chuck whereas the Skate Old Skools feel more substantial, more like a shoe. Again, these aren't a bad shoe at all - its all personal preference. Size and fit are as described. No issues there. Construction was on point for Vans - always a good product. Color and material look just like the pics.

The style and color (grey and white) were great. I ordered the mens 10.5 for my grandson. The fit was very narrow for a regular mens shoe. I think because the shoe is meant for either a man or woman, it runs narrower than it normally would. We love the Vans shoe and have had good experience with them. We will stick to the wider size from now on.

The fit and size were on point, however, it just didn't look good on my feet. Not sure what it was...it did not scream "MUST HAVE" so I returned them.

They aren't as comfortable as some other "skate" shoes I buy. They are very stiff. I buy a lot of DCs and they are way more comfortable than the Vans. But I do like the way they look.

The fit was fine, and I like the style. However, the backs of my ankles were bleeding within two hours of wearing these shoes—and I barely walked. I ended up donating the shoes to Goodwill.

I ordered the orange ones and was so excited because the color would have been so cute for fall but I received the wrong color! Very disappointed will be returning.

The description should have said the material is slightly sparkly. I didn't want that look so am returning them.
