Customer Reviews Vans SK8-Hi™

My Son LOVES These Shoes - He got the ones with "Eddie" on them - Iron Maiden and they are TOUGH! They actually look better on than on the pic. I (my son) highly recommend them. I DID order down a 1/2 size smaller than his Adios, as recommended in a review and am glad I did. They would've been too big, so this review thing is cool...used it in the past and it's helpful. The service - I ordered them in the afternoon and they arrived the NEXT DAY! That can't be beat. Zappos returns and support can't be beat!

Labor Day Life Saver - I purchased the SK8-Hi multi-colored 'skulls' version of the shoe. (Pink, lite blue, etc) A friend was in town visiting and showed up with a 'SICK' shoe. Well, since I consider myself a 'Sneaker Villain', I was somewhat caught off guard b/c I live in Atlanta and Labor day wknd is a big wknd. Nonetheless, I found this shoe on the site AND it was free next day shipping always an added bonus. By the time my friend woke up, the shoe was here and he was OUT DONE!! LOL The shoe is the BEST! It's comfortable, stylish, got plenty of compliments and no one else had a pair on in the city!! Enough for me. :-)

Iron Maiden Vans - I own 68, now 69 pairs of Vans and I love every pair. Zappos is one of the best companies I've EVER worked with.

These are excellent - I've owned multiple pairs of Vans SK8-Hi shoes. These shoes are literally one of the most comfortable pair of shoes I have ever worn. The style and comfort are excellent for the price. I couldn't be happier with these shoes! I highly recommend these shoes if you are looking for comfort.

Cute shoe - This shoe was for my daughter. She loves Vans for their novelty prints, this has dogs on it. She said the shoe was comfortable. The last pair of shoes she got that were Vans lasted her a whole school year and she wore those little penguins to death! Despite that, the bottoms had the most mileage out of them, the upper never ripped or frayed. We are sold on Vans.

Vans SK8-Hi Rock! These were purchased for my metal head son (I love him). He likes the look very much, the quality of the shoe is very important to me and they stand up to some pretty high requirements. Not a lot of arch support, but fashionable yes. Overall, a good choice for the boy.

Gr8 sk8 shoe - My son has been wearing these shoes for years. I just got him the Iron Maiden Eddie print Sk8 Hi. He said he doesn't want to wear them because the artwork is so good. If you normally buy the heavily padded skate shoes you should wear a smaller size in this shoe.

The Iron Maiden Sk8-Hi - 5 words: This shoe is the greatest. Comfort is amazing. It looks perfect better in person than on a picture.

(Skull Checkerboard) Blue Atoll/Fandango Pink - Shoe goes well with the shirt I bought, shipping is great, and so is the customer service!! Also feel very comfortable in the shoes.

Vans SK8-Hi - Zappos is the only place to order your Vans. Overnight FREE shipping and no sales tax saves you money not even mentioning not having to search the malls for the perfect shoes. Being a mother of teenagers, they know what they want and I save time and money. The Vans SK8-Hi's are very cool shoes! Zappos is the only place for Vans as far as I'm concerned. Thanks again for another great sale!!!

Fantastic - They’re great! I turn heads wherever I go! I buy a full size smaller because they run kind of big! No arch support, but you should expect that with a classic shoe.

SK8-Hi Are GRRREEEEEAAAATTTT!! The Vans SK8-Hi is a great everyday shoe. It has a great look and an excellent feel when walking. I ordered a size 12 and it felt just a little big, but not big enough to really notice. For the most part they are true 2 size. I wear em for style but I’m sure they would be a great skate shoe as well.

I got the shoes and it was true to the online description, BUT I just couldn't get to "feeling" this shoe. I don't know if it was because I don't normally wear high tops, but I just couldn't feel them... Therefore, I returned them for the Vans Era Fidos, they are cute!!!

Quality Classic - Zappos has excellent service; I received them insanely fast, ordered Friday night and had them on my feet on Monday!!! I've always had a pair of these to wear for the past 15yrs at least. You get your money's worth out of these shoes for sure! I don't skate as much as I used to but still a good shoe to wear.

Good service - I got my white and blacks in two days, mainly because I ordered them before 4th of July!! Good Service!! When I saw them in this color, I knew I had to have them!!

Sweet shoes! The best shoes I have ever worn. Great for speed boarding, but the only problem is that they never come off and you have to actually untie them to get them off; not always bad. The shoe gets hot in the summer, but the open slot in the tong of the shoe helps a little. They last extremely long and lots and lots of pad in the sole. Seriously buy these shoes; I swear you will love 'em. In fact I am buying another pair soon.

Awesome shoes!! Zappos is one of the best websites to order Vans they have a million styles and colors to choose from and when I ordered them they were here the next day...Zappos is awesome.

Please keep these in stock!!! A must have item - Thanks for carrying these. Though minimal padding and arch support compared to modern designs, soles have a very gummy, grippy feel for the skater who wore these when that's all there was. I'm giving my new school Vans away now.

What a Great Shoe! I’ve worn Hi Top Converse All-Stars for the past 10 years. I’ve always liked slip on Vans as well as the Old Skool but I can’t stand not having hi top shoes. I saw these shoes on a friend of mine and decided to check them out. So I ordered a pair and I absolutely love them. They have great support as well as a great feeling and a sense of style. I love them though I always will stick to my Converse roots!

Birthday Shoes - My son loves his new Vans high tops; he even bought the same design in the slip on style.

Working, walking...wonderful! My son loved these shoes right out of the box. Better support than his Converse and a smart look with suede and gunmetal canvas. He walks a lot and says they're completely comfortable and he just wishes he got a little better traction on wet floors at work.

Cool kicks - The Vans SK8's are awesome and the most comfortable shoes I have worn in some time. I grew up in the 70's and 80's and it took me twenty years to get into some Vans. Awesome shoes and I highly recommend the SK8's for all activities that involve comfy kicks.

Vans SK8 - Great service, received next day. Very nice shoe, I usually wear an 11 (wide foot too) and I felt the 11 in this shoe was a little big; surprised. I may try a 10.5. Very nice quality too.

Ultimate BMX or Skate Shoe - I've owned Vans over the years and these have been my favorites for BMX or just hanging out. Great looking shoes and very comfortable. Everyone needs to own these at least once. Go for it! I would add that Vans does offer shoes with more padding and more modern design, check out the Geoff Rowley Vans line. Rowley's are more comfortable than these, but don't come in high-tops (yet). For what these are, skate shoes, they are the first and in my opinion, the best. A California tradition.

Vans make the world go round - I will definitely choose Zappos.com again in the future. I was very pleased to find exactly what I was looking for. On a trip to the Dallas Metroplex, I was unable to find this shoe after visiting several skate shops, including a VANS store at one of the malls. Then after arriving home, I went online to the Vans website and still no shoes. That’s when I went to Zappos.com. I’ll just go there first next time. Thank you.
