Just like I remember but due to age and osteoarthritis in both ankles and feet, I added some nice insoles. These are about 8 hour shoes at best so I plan ahead. The only down side is the color options are limited with a size 16. Lucky black and white goes with just about everything.

I bought a size 10 which is the same size I bought last time. The last ones fit perfectly while these ones are a bit too big :(

I started wearing Vans as a teenage skate rat. Not to date myself, but let's say it has been several decades and I rarely get on my board these days. That said, I am still rocking my Vans Old Skools in multiple colors, plus one pair of slip-ons for those casual days. #sweepstakes

I don't even want to wear them

No, I don't recommend this
This is not my first pair of vans, but it will be the last unless things change. The pair I just bought look way cheaper and like they will fall apart much faster than the older ones. They are no longer fully canvas, the shoelace eyelets are gone, the rubber on the bottom does not sit as well on the shoe, and the inside is way rougher than it was on my last pair. I am not pleased, and I am considering returning.

These shoes truly are "old school". I started wearing Vans as a teenage skate rat back in the 80's, and am still a huge fan. Great shoes, I always have at least 3 or 4 pairs in different colors.

What is already known never has to be explained. Thank you for not conforming to "trend". Remaining Iconically Creatively Original, without massive obnoxious logos. Simple Sleek and Savvy. Legendary Class At Its Finest.

Removable Insert = Game Changer

I hadn't worn a pair of Vans since the 2000s and decided to give them another go. As someone susceptible to bunions, the fact that you can now remove the insert is incredible. It offers much needed room in the toe box without compromising on the rest of the size of the shoe.

My go-to shoes always!

I've been wearing Van's shoes since I was a teenager and I will never stop. These shoes go with everything and the quality makes them long-lasting. I love my new pair.

Custom

I ordered the customs. They showed up sooner than expected and were exactly what I wanted. Not really worth the extra cost but I got the colors I wanted. Only complaint is put some stickers in the box. Need some for my board.

I use vans daily; they go with all my outfits, and they are very comfortable and durable. I still have pairs from 5-7 years ago. I will use them forever, and my future kids will too
