Super bummed. These vans aren’t really “vans” all Vans have linings around the ankle as well as a separate piece of heel fabric. Err’body knows this! I checked all my slip ins and lace ups. I used a pair of my old lace ups for reference. Spidy sense says no bueno!
They’re pretty though 😂

Comfortable and perfect fit…. I’m glad I ended up sizing down half a shoe size (to an 8.5).

“Y’all, I am LOVING these! The checkerboard print is so cute and I already have the perfect crossbody to match. They did need just a little breaking in but once they loosened up they felt great. Such a fun, stylish shoe — I’ll be wearing these everywhere!”
The colors are pretty true to the photos, I got the ones that are a darker purple/indigo color cause the “purple” that’s been on all the adds is too magenta/pink for me and I’m loving them. I’ve gotten tons of compliments too. It also took nothing to break em in, no blisters nothing🙌
I am originally a 9.5, had seen some other reviews to size up if inbetween sizes so I ordered a 10. Not complaining about having a little extra room. Very comfy
LOVE! The strawberry details around the sides are perfect. I usually wear 10 wide but since vans can be narrow I went up a half size and it fits perfect 🍓
I was skeptical about purchasing these shoes due to the low price. I have been wearing Van's since the 1980's and paid close the cost of these Van's back then. They are adorable and 100% authentic. They silver on the shoes is so sparkly without being too much, very subtle.
So comfy!! You can't go wrong with Vans!! I got my order in 3 days, too! They say to size up because of the style/fit but I wear an 8 and ordered an 8. The fit is PERFECT 👌
I bought these in California last Christmas and have searched for another pair here in Wa forever and couldn’t find them in this color so was so excited when I saw these online immediately buy perfect color
this is the first brand new pair of vans i've ever worn that haven't given me a blister the first wear 😭 these shoes are SO cute and SOOOO comfy. i think they run a little bigger than normal, i usually wear an 8.5 in vans but probably could've gone for an 8. including pics from my outfit with the shoes today!! 🥰
