I bought these for my man for his birthday and he absolutely loves them. They are nostalgic for him. Thank you Vans. Never disappointing

I really love those shoes! I've had them for more than a year now, wear them almost everyday and they still look like new! And I garden A LOT, walk, and kick butts! They are still super comfy! The only "bad" thing I could say about them, is that they tend to run hot, they are pretty warm compared to other pairs of Vans I have. In summer I just want to take them off and walk barefoot because I get to hot in them 😅

Falls apart quickly

This used to be a great show and have been buying the same ones for years. Unfortunately the quality has gone downhill and the shoe falls apart quickly. This has happened on the last two pairs. Will no longer be purchasing this and I recommend the same.

Only my second pair of vans. I had a different style prior. Wasn't sure if I was going to like this style. But once I put them on I was like gotta grab a few more pairs. I love how soft the bottoms are. It's truly like walking on foam.

I've been buying Vans for myself and family for more than 20 years. This pair was very low quality compared to the other pair of Old Skool Vans I bought my son!

I have another pair in this style, and got one .5 size up. The fit and comfort is perfect, and the other pair of shoes I have have lasted me years.

Comfy! My fave
Originally posted on Vans

This is the only kind I get. They are comfy for my wide feet and every other kind of shoe I try always fits weird or makes my feet hurt. I've tried other styles too, but this one is just right. If you have wide, chubby feet.. these are the ones you want!

I wear them all the time especially when I'm riding my bike. They are comfortable and grip my puddles really well.

They are decent shoes just very narrow, typically don't need a wide shoe but would definitely suggest it with these.

I need to wear black shoes with non skid soles for work. These not only meet all of my work's requirements but also fit nicely and are comfortable for walking/standing for hours.

I actually intended to buy some docs but they were too big, so I returned them and bought 2 pairs of vans instead. Great fit, look slick! #sweepstakes

OLD SKOOL CLASSIC
Originally posted on Vans

This old school classic has been a favorite of mine since the late '90s. Although I don't skateboard anymore, I love the comfort, look and durability of this shoe. I would buy it again and again. Don't fix what's not broken. You'll never go wrong with a classic shoe from Vans.!
