The smell of the material is weird, and the colour gets washed out very fast :/The fit is nice for skateboarding, but for walking, I didn\'t enjoy these.I would not recommend washing them!buy them if you don\'t like / can\'t afford to buy dunks

I have three pairs I rotate through for everyday wear and skating. They are the best fitting Vans model I have, and I have about 6 different pairs. The insoles in these are the most protective of any of the Pro models. They are a comfy fit and size for long sessions. I never have sore feet and I skate transition fairly hard.I've tried other brands over the years but none are as good as these. Buy them, you won't regret it!

I skate flat/curbs/flatbars. My foot is size 9, I weigh 70 kg and I am 180 cm tall. I usually prefer cupsole skateshoes but I ended up with the Vans Sk8-Hi's because of the protection over the ankle. This shoe is true to size, maybe a tad bigger than some of my 27 cm shoes. It is also not a narrow shoe like New Balances or Nikes. This shoe is great for skating, but in my opinion not the best shoe to walk on as I found some marginal heel lift even with so many laces. However these break in fast, the shoe is light for such a durable and even with a "fat" vulcanized outsole. I would prefer the pro version for skating every time. I think for my foot this shoe has not the optimal feel on the heel so I recommend that you try these at a shop if you haven't already.This ... MoreI skate flat/curbs/flatbars.

Even with the pop cush insole the feel is awesome. The Hi-top model needs some getting used to but is no dealbreaker for me as that was what I wanted. They have such a good view from above and over all. For this shoe I would have preferred it to have some topping in the heels to prevent heel lift, but that is all I can complain. It has some canvas for breathability in the middle which is nice for the summer.For me, this is a rather basic skate shoe with good durability on because of suede and a thick vulcanized outsole. I recommend these for you if you already like Vans skate shoes and want to go for something extra with the Hi's.

I have always liked Vans, their products are really good, confortable, and they manage very good prices.This product in particular just fulfilled my expectations. Amazing colors, great design, and match with every style in every season.Totally recommend!
I started wearing Van's as a kid. Now as an adult I have been buying them for my kids for years. This pair is the first for my granddaughter. I'm positive I'm not the only family that has generation upon generation that wears them because of the timeless fashion. My granddaughter could wear her mothers shoes and no one would know and still be a cool kid. As a matter of fact she has. Their favorites are the white and black classic checkered slip ons. Beyond the timeless style is the cushiony comfort. You could walk all day in them. Who doesn't love them?!
Bravo to The Talented Indigenous Artist who did an excellent job with the Formline Artwork Design on these Vans! They're comfortable and the gold & black colors go great together. I bought 5 pairs of slip-ons, 1 pair of high tops and the t-shirt! Gunalchéesh for positively represent Indigenous People and for pairing up with Vans who's willing to donate back to Native Youth Programs, that's awesome! You're doing great things & I'm lovin these cool Vans!! We say Gunalchéesh (it means thank you in the Tlingit language)
My boyfriend loves hunter green and has an obsession with fleece this winter. He is an avids vans fan and has a lot of the special edition pieces. These shoes were super Quailty and the lining cover the entire interior. So not only are they great to look at they are actually warmer and cozier than the average high tops.
I love these shoes. I like to see the new season styles and colors. My 1st was in that lavender/berry color & I want another pair but they ended that color😢. My 2nd is a light spruce green Peace 🔆Leaf so there's an embroidered heart & rainbow on toe box & heel. Super cute but not in your face. It's nice to have a bit of feminine in my sneakers. I'm 66 but still love youthful things. Only bad thing is the laces!!! They are cotton & hang up when you try to put these on. Being a soft heel you need to open the laces or the heel smashes down & you can't pulled it up. I changed the laces to a nylon and it's fine. I suggest Vans upgrade the laces on their high tops.
Not all copper/bronze like the picture makes it seem. Toe is regular gum sole color. Drawing on shoe is grayish. The eyelet definitely isn't copper/bronze. Would have been a great shoe if looked like pic.
Great looking pair of shoes that my son will love as a Christmas present. Vans are the ONLY shoes he wears outside of basketball, football and track. If y'all made them for these sports, I feel certain that's ALL he'd wear. Great service and fast shipping. Thank you
