Bring back the TRUE WHITE and black checkerboard shoes. These are beige. Definitely not white.

I wear an 8 in every shoe from Jordan's to Converse. This was the smallest 8! My daughter wears a 7 and could barely fit it. Smh

I have owned multiple pairs of Vans over the years. I am typically a Converse type of person but had made the switch to Vans since they have more padding. My first pair of custom Vans are comfortable. I ordered another pair of leather Vans recently and they are super uncomfortable and scratchy not your typical Vans quality. Unfortunately I was advised that because they are customs I will not be refunded even though its a comfort/quality thing. Switching back to Converse since they have more custom options for your shoe and now offer extra padding, plus you can return even if custom.

I purchased this exact pair of shoes before and when this one came in the color is very off from the original purchase.

Shoes were obviously used and returned with wrong laces. Design looks like measurements were WAY off.

Super cute shoes. Just don't plan on moving. At all. I've been at work for less than an hour and the backs of my heels are bleeding. Miserable day.

Defective sewing and no quality control. Very disappointed in the poor craftsmanship of these shoes. The sizing is off, fit is poor

The tongue of the shoe keeps sliding down. Very uncomfortable.

I love all my prior Vans purchases, and will purchase again, but these shoes are disappointing. The tongue on the left shoe is shorter than the one on the right, so when I wear them, the tongue keeps moving down causing discomfort and it looks ridiculous. But like I said, I love Vans and will continue wearing them.

The heel area is so hard that it rubbed through a bandaid and sock. I wore them for 4 hours and will never wear again. I have sent two emails to the company asking about options (I thought I had ordered the same version that I LOVE and have worn for years) and no one has responded for over 3 weeks.

Was so excited to see these but when they arrived they weren't the color I expected based off of what was displayed online.

I have always ordered the same size shoe. This order was a whole size and a half too big. I didn't realize it until I got to work, They were flopping all over the school. This was so embarrassing!!!!!

They are beautiful but nowhere in the title or overview does it state that it has suede. The white suede gets dirtier faster than the rest of shoe.

My first impression-wow these are heavy! They are so clunky. Definitely cozy but twice the size of my regular vans. Like old etnies. Returned!

Shoes fit very narrow and tight in the toe box. The description says leather uppers, that is not accurate. These shoes are synthetic leather.

The shoes are great, but the customer service and delivery was awful. I wouldn't recommend buying from vans direct. Was told I'd get partial refund nothing happened.

These are not Van's standard quality. They feel incredibly cheap and I have no doubt they wouldn't hold up like the rest of my Van's. I have returned them with the intent to purchase some old school Van's instead. These, to me, were terrible materials and quality.

Shoes look really cute and fun to wear however the presentation of when I got them wasn't the best. They looked like someone tried them on and threw them in the box.

Regular high tops or sk8t are way better. Gonna return these and get the other. I was hoping I would feel like I was walking on clouds as told. Ohwell
