Customer Reviews Vans Old Skool

Too wide and too heavy but super cute.

A little snug until they got a little worn in. Still rubs the back of my foot if I dont wear a thicker sock.

One shoe was a totally different size than the other. Label says they are the same, but they are not. Returning. First time this has happened with a pair of vans for me and I’ve owned a lot of different pairs

I liked the color but there is zero arch support and my feet ached pretty quickly just wearing them around the house. It could work with an insert.

Fantastic looking shoe! Extremely stiff and short.

I ordered these in Drizzle/True White and the material inside the heel is a plastic / fake leather material and it makes my no show socks fall down and is causing a blister on my Achilles’ tendon area. I have several pairs of canvas Vans and have never had this issue before.

Uncomfortable.

I wear vans daily. The color on the upper was just as expected. The problem is that the sole is not white. It is a creamy white as if it has yellowed. That is why I’m returning them.

This is my 5th pair of Old Skool Vans. I absolutely LOVE them. I teach 2nd grade, so I'm on my feet all day. My legs are not killing me at the end of the day. This particular pair was just a little too big. I was so surprised. I'm going to reorder the same size in hopes that I just got a fluke of a pair. The red pair is probably my fave with the light pink as the runner up. Well..... I just received the cheetah print, so it's a close race now.

The shoes are nice shoes and I am familiar with the style because I have other pairs the same but different colors. Only complaint I have is one of the shoes had missing stitching near the lace holes. I was going to send back but already worn them once.

We ordered these shoes in a size Men’s 10 a week later we received the order...right box but completely different shoes inside the box, so we returned them to exchange for the correct size. A week later we re received the she’s but instead of the right size we were sent a Men’s size 5 1/2. Highly disappointed with your service. I am a women’s retail clothing store and we send out orders all throughout the day. This is not the kind of service I teach and expect from my team.

The shoe was super cute, but the tounge was so hard and jammed into my ankle. Had to return.

Sorry cannot answer since I returned the shoes.

The photo shows a dark shoe, black. Shoe arrived and is actually navy Blue. Not satisfied as these were a gift :(

A bit disappointed in color, they are not black, more of a dark blue. Material feels cheap, but they are good looking, I guess that’s why I purchased them.

The colors on the shoe is bright and makes it pop. Really like these shoes

I am a huge fan of the old Skool vans however the picture show the shoes to be a deep purple. When I received the shows I was disappointed to see that the color was more burgundy then purple.

I ordered the Gumsole Sky Captain/Bootlace style Vans. These appeared black on the photo displayed, but when arrived are Navy (a very dark blue). I will be returning for pure black vans in a similar style.

Bought the Black Mono (full leather) style. Same great fit and comfort of the Old Skool with a slightly dressy look. Out of the box, these shoes squeaked like crazy. After a couple days of wear, they started to quiet down but still squeak a bit. After slight wear, they develop an ugly white line of glue where the upper meets the sole. I darkened it up with a sharpie but probably will have to do it again later. Recommend sticking with the canvas models, they are much less trouble.

The style is super cute and fit true to size based on the sizing chart, but a warning to those who buy these, they look like a deep, vibrant purple in the photo, which is what I wanted and expected, but they are actually a dull maroon color in reality. I was disappointed because maroon was not what I was looking for, and sadly Vans doesn't even have that great, brilliant purple as an option for any of their shoes right now (which they should!). I decided to keep them anyway, though they were not the color that was advertised or that I wanted because I think I can still make them work.

Get sole inserts! Love the different textures of the snow/marshmallow white shoes. But yeah, these fit poorly. Length wise, they are a true 7. But they are so wide and tall, if that makes sense- that I have to pull the laces in all the way. This makes both sides of the shoe nearly touch. They kinda look like clown shoes from directly above bc the toe box is so big and round. And it’s not the most esthetically appealing from that angle. Luckily the rest of the world sees a much cuter view. Anyway, to remedy the fit I used a thin sole insert from Dr. S above the existing sole. It filled in the shoe, AND provided much needed arch support bc there is ZERO. After all that being said, I kept them. And they are really cute with pretty much everything. Also, I would say that the marshmallow color is like an off white. A really nice alternative to stark white shoes. The textures on them is everything. Hope this helps ya

If you dont have a narrow foot,These shoes are not for you.They are extremely tight to the fit..

These shoes look great. But they are definitely not very comfortable. I've had decent Vans in the past... but comfort-wise, this shoe does not make the cut.

These are super cute shoes. However, the sparkles on the tongue of the shoe makes it very stiff and it rubs on the front of my ankle. It is not flexible enough to move with you. Not sure if it will soften and become better over time.

The soles are stiff and cause blisters on the back of my daughters heel. She really wanted to love these shoes, I wanted her too love them too (for the price). But they just sit in her closet unworn because they hurt her feet so badly.
