A good alternative for when I hadn't have time to take care of my feet! They are quite narrow though.

The shoe fits on my right foot but feels loose on my left foot. I should have gone with a smaller size so it would have been a little tight on the right but perfect on the left. Otherwise, if I'm not careful, the shoe flies off my left foot. But they're still cute and comfortable.

Exactly as pictured. Comfortable. Easy slip on style. I love them and always get compliments. Not the best for a wide foot.

This runs a little small. Tried a 1/2 larger, but it was too large. I was disappointed because I liked the style!

These were extremely narrow. Perhaps for an individual with medium to narrow feet these shoes would be a better fit. Bummer because they were otherwise a good blend of athletic/kinda feminine style.

These are cute shoes, but they do fit funny. The front of the shoe is really snug, and the back is really loose. I'm not sure if they need to be broken in or if they are just made that way.

Cute shoe but very uncomfortable and will be returned. The heel almost slips out while the top is very tight, so I don't think that a bigger size will fix anything. Good style & quality though.

These shoes are so cute, I love it's look so much. It's a darling alternative to a bulky sneaker. But they are so uncomfortable! I ordered half a size larger based on the recommendations but I think a full size may have been better. Even ordering a full size larger, I still think they will be very uncomfortable. I agree, this shoe may be better for someone with narrow feet. Too bad because they are precious!

These are comfortable in a classic style making them suitable for casual business wear. They were out of stock when I decided I wanted them so I signed up for notification and was, well, notified when they came in. Very happy camper.

These are the classic vans slip shoes. I got my first pair in 1984 when I was 5! They're great shoes for walking, skateboarding, and going out! All around vans shoes are a great all around shoe! And I just want to say how much Zappos rocks!! I have been getting all my shoes from them for the fast 4 years! I have never been let down a single time!

Awesome shoe... narrow fit- These retro Vans are amazingly cool. I get a ton of compliments when I wear them. The only problem is that they are very narrow. I have (I THINK) a normal foot. These shoes cut in on the sides of my feet near the toes. I wear them anyway, of course, because they are so downright rad. They stretch out a bit after wearing them for a while and it's enjoyable to wear them without socks in the summer. COOL COLORS, TOO!!

First of all, I would like to express my thanks to the employees at Zappos. I ordered the correct shoes but wrong pattern. When I received the shoes, I called them up and they were extremely helpful with the exchange. Within 3 days, I had the correct new pair. The staff is very efficient, friendly and professional. By the way, the Vans Classic Slip-On shoes are awesome!

What can I say, Vans are a classic that you cannot go wrong with! I bought these in espresso for my brother for Christmas. I overheard him say he wanted brown Vans and he loved these. They are an excellent purchase!

Not Quite--But Close - I love the shoe... but... as a big foot guy unfortunately their idea of size 13 is not exactly what my feet agree with.

Was disappointed that these shoes were too big by about a half size. Initially, I still wore them dispite the extra toe room, but then got a blister. Not sure if I'll wear them anymore

These are nice looking shoes, but they lasted less than one month! My son wore them a few times a week for a month and they are already torn from the sole. That was very disappointing, no shoes should last less than a month!
