Customer Reviews Vans Classic Slip-On™

Ordered the men's size 9.5 which is supposedly a women's 11. They did not fit. It was a women's size 9.5 if that. What a gyp. I gave them away.

This shoe is the narrowest thing ever. Exactly like it looks. It's a cool shoe, but if your feet aren't skinny you are out of the club.

I've worn several of these in the past, gone through them like crazy, worn them down to the bone until they were falling apart and then would replace them. Ordered these from Zappos as usual (it had been a good 3 years since I got a new pair of Vans) and holy crap - Ow. I cannot wear them. I've tried breaking them in on more than one occasion, but every time I put them on it's like a torture chamber for my feet. I don't know what gives, did Vans switch up manufacturers or something? I bought the same exact size (and still have my old pair to make sure and to compare) and they just aren't working out. I paid for pain, basically. It actually angers me to the point where I want to set these things on fire and throw them in the trash. Ugh. Very disappointed. Will probably never bother with them again. Which sucks, because they've always been so comfortable.

Absolute junk! If you are thinking that Vans shoes from your youth are what you are purchasing, think again. I have returned 2 pairs of the same style/color in less than on year. Vans quality from my skater days some 25 years ago were tough! You've been warned!

The shoes are nice and casual and comfortable. Unfortunately, after less than three months of moderate use, there's a hole in the top of the canvas near the toe. I wouldn't be surprised by this if I was wearing them daily, however, I probably wore them 1-2 times a week and often for short periods of time. I'd throw them on to walk my dog or make a run to the corner store. Certainly not often enough to warrant a hole after less than three months. Major bummer.

When I received the shoe, the first thing I noticed was the poor craftsmanship. The rubber sole in the back seemed to be overlapped on itself, melted together, then they put the Vans logo on top of this causing a good sized bulge on the back of the rubber portion of the shoe. The style looks great, I would definitely order a full or half size bigger, if I was to order this shoe again. When I put on the shoe with socks, it was very cramped and my toenails would rub the top portion of fabric, and when I tried the suggestion of no socks, I knew then it just wasn't going to happen. I didn't even bother trying the other shoe on.
