Always loved Vans growing up but due to most of them being too heavy & uncomfortable I had to find another option. Now I can re-live my past. Super light weight allows me to walk all day in these. They somehow fit narrower than traditional Oldskools but I’m sure they’ll stretch out. I got these along with checkered slip on Lites & absolutely loving them. I haven’t worn them long enough to see how durable they are but they seem to be doing all right so far for a month. Stay with your regular size. Ease into em & they’ll give in.

I have another pair of Old Skool Vans which I love, but this pair fit differently. They're feel and look more narrow at the top which makes my foot look oddly wider when I wear them. And they feel slightly more snug than the regular Old Skools. I'm not sure if this is true for all Old Skool Lite Vans, but that was my experience with these. They feel very light and comfortable otherwise.

These are the classic Vans. Can't go wrong. Feels great and looks good. Got the all canvas ones and they feel amazing. Not too stiff and I know they'll hold up and keep looking great for a long time.

These are my go to shoes when I want to be comfortable but still stylish. These shoes go with everything and I can be on my feet all day in these. The Lite soles do wear or get less squishy over time, but definitely still comfortable. Only want to wear Lite Vans from now on!

These vans live (step) up to the hype. Super comfy, well made and ultra light. I will certainly purchase others in this line up. I normally wear a 10.5 but a 10 was in order this go around! Go for it, they deserve your feet.

Comfy! These things are super light. The fabric is a little stiff but thats pretty common with vans. I've been a size 11 in vans previously but I actually went a half size up because the toes on old skools are a little narrow where the fabric is, also I think my foot may have gotten bigger. I'm pretty happy with them now that they've broken in a little bit.

These are super light weight, super comfortable and provide pretty good arch support. Having worn Vans as a kid in the late 70's and 80's, the lack of comfort made this not a reality as a man now in my mid 40's. I applaud Vans for making a pair of shoes that are old school, look pretty cool, but are actually comfortable.

I was looking for a casual all black shoe with some style. Comfort wasn't that important to me, but these shoes are light as a feather and so comfortable! I need to stock up if they ever discontinue!

These shoes are light comfortable, and so far great on my skateboard, and just walking around. I may buy a few more pairs!

ive had multiple pairs of the original old skool over the years.. out of nowhere, the quality of the OG old skool got worse and i wasnt happy at all with the last pair i bought.. i then got a pair of the pro version of these... they felt really sloppy to wear and mushy if that makes sense.. then i got talked into these, which ive avoided, because the sole looked really cheesy to me, and fake.. i finally got a pair and have to admit, they are the best in the line-up... i have tall toe knuckles.. all of the old skool shoes pinch my toes and cause a lot of pain for the first few days before breaking in and being comfortable. these shoes are no exception for me. i wish vans would fix this problem, because i know im not the only one this happens to. the sols is thicker on these shoes and the lace pattern is wider than the OG old skools.. both these and the pro models are both bulkier than the OG version... i got these in black i love them.. wish zappos would carry them in blue also...

Like a running shoe in the inside, more support than any old skool has had before. Veg folks; Black is all canvas, the other colors feature some suede. Great if you walk more than you roll.

Looks great but not very comfortable, unbearably so without socks. So I wear them when its cooler out with socks as long as I don't have to walk a lot. That being said the few times I have worn them I have always got compliments on how they look.

I've been wearing Vans for years and recently decided to try out the 'lite' style. Unfortunately, I've been pretty disappointed overall with them. I found the overall quality to be lesser than traditional Vans styles. I also found them to be significantly less breathable to the point that I had to use moisture absorbing insoles even while wearing socks. The 'lite' material of which the soles are made is not very durable; after about only a month of use they are visibly worn down. Alas, I still love you, Vans. But I will not be purchasing another pair of Lites.

why is there not a women's 10 or smaller? There are a lot of people that need a smaller shoe than that.
