The fit of this sandal runs small in size as I feel like my foot is gonna hang off the sandal at the heel. More flimsy than I was expecting. Almost like they took cheap flip flops and put the Vans logo on it. The logo also looked like a luxurious gold font color in the video but in person it’s like a mustard yellow color. The comfort isn’t for long use on your feet. Short runs with these sandals is my recommendation.

They were very narrow and just didn't look like the quality I've come to expect from Vans. They looked like something you pick up at Old Navy for 5 bucks when you forget your sandals at home on vacation.

I have very wide feet and these fit me perfectly. They are very comfortable too. I bought both the checkered and the plain black. I love them!

I thought these would be better made but I could not wear these flip flops for more than a few minutes. The rubber part that goes between your toes is not comfortable whatsoever. Sorry but these hurt my feet so bad from the rubbing while wearing.

It’s true to size, but the soul is so thin that when you walk, it keeps catching on the ground and flipping over so it’s dangerous to wear

Runs very small. I’m normally an 8-8.5. I ordered a 9 and they are almost too small
Review edit from 5 stars to 1:
I’ve had these for less than 2 months and they’re already so thin I can feel the rocks I walk on. I’ve had dollar general flip flops last longer than this. Wow. Do not recommend

LOVE THEM! Comfortable, all day on my feet as a PE teacher!! Shape and size: 8, fit to size. Wearability: On feet walking all day. Color: Match my school and VERY attractive Gold.
so cute!! My twins are hard on shoes and put holes in the toes beyond quickly. This material is so thick that i know for once they will have the opportunity to actually outgrow the shoes! Dare i say they are hand me down potential? The quality is too tier. Muy bien.
“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!”
I’m obsessed! When I saw these in black, I had to have them. The arrived insanely fast (like 3 days after purchase) and the fit perfectly. I love the opaque trim on the soles. Love from an elder emo 🖤
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 👌
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🙌
