Comfortable and classic. You can’t go wrong with these slip-ons. The canvas upper is breathable and the sole is surprisingly supportive. I can’t say I use them for skateboarding, but I do walk around town in them and for that they are just fine.
And all around well-constructed and well designed shoe. It will remain a part of my wardrobe for a long time. (It doesn’t look like Vans will stop making them soon).
I’ve loved the comfort of Vans slip ons as well as the old school style. But having owned many pairs I simply can’t buy them any more. The quality is 1 out of 10. They simply fall apart after a very short time. JUNK!! If they were 15-20 dollars I’d keep buying. But at around 40 bucks a pair they are a complete rip off.
Vans slip ons always fall apart too quickly, and their styling is a little plain for my tastes. I’d recommend Tommy Hilfiger’s slip-ons as an alternative to vans.
They are just cool. They aren’t for extra support or to make you jump higher or run faster. They are just plain ol’ cool. Get them and love them and then reminisce a little about the good ol’ days.
Our oldest Son loved these shoes. He wore them until they were full of holes and rips and the sole was half gone (or gone in places) and he still wore them. As a parent though I would have wished for a more solid, supportive shoe, but that wouldn’t be “cool”.
