I purchased these for my granddaughter (junior in high school) to start school and she loves them! She wears a size 10 and wondered if she should order a size up just to be
certain. I told her to read the online posts to see if there were comments regarding size or width, as surely if there was a caveat, there would be repeated posts addressing it.
She did and the posts stated that they were 'true to size' so I ordered the 10s. She loves them! (Many thanks for those who take time to write in comments--it does help!) She

I buy sizes 7.5 to 8 shoes, I am a bit wide. These I got in a 7.5 & they fit perfectly! I'm including a pic with a narrower shoe to show that right at the seam there is width. It's
right where I need the room. The sueded makes these look more expensive. Quite stiff at first, it's going to take a few at home wears to break in. Super happy with the
Marshmallow/White combo.

I love Vans Old School style. I was so glad I got my size 8 in blue color before they sold out!! I already had a black and a tan pair . Love that their is no break in period and so comfortable. Alsways get a pair for myself and daughter so we have our own, since we wear the same size. Want more colors. I missed the burgundy ones darn!! we both wear a narrow medium so getting a size 8 seems to work. I think they run a half size big, but try them on to make sure. They do stretch also for wider feet!!

I love these shoes! This is my second pair of the Old Skool Sneakers! I purchased the True White style in size 7 and it goes with nearly every outfit that I wear. I prefer these to the white Converse! I live in these shoes every day -they are so incredibly comfortable. I'm in my late 20's and don't feel like a teenager whenever I slip these on- they are truly a classic style. I even wear them to work (I work in an office with a casual dress code). My only wish is that they had the Vans logo on the tongue like in the other styles (I own a pair of these in olive green suede). If you're thinking about purchasing these - just do it! You won't regret it!

I'm a skateboarder and I know vans for years, love it myself, but I got a new girlfriend and her shoes were not comfy at all. I though give a chance to Vans to show what are real comfortable shoes feels like and got her Old School Blush/True White (pink one).Oh man! She loves it! And she said it so comfortable, she is wearing it every day now. Thanks Vans!

I got these in the Black first and then during the anniversary sale got the red suede pair. First of all I am not a sneaker person but these sneakers converted me. I am a size eight and have a etremely high arch so I need a wider shoe to make it fit right. Vans are made for me they are by far the most comfortable shoes I own and I dare to wear them to work as well with business attire! Love them and getting the white one next and the. The pink! I highly recommend these.

These are my first pair of VANS. Delivery and packaging were excellent but the shoes don't arrive laced-up already. The Old Skool is a classic good looking sneaker. The canvas and suede look very stylish together. I ordered a half- size down and they fit pretty good. I just plan on wearing them with no-show footies or bare feet. I think if I had ordered my true size, they would have been too long. I'll see how comfortable and long wearing they'll be in the Spring. They'll be cute, cool, and casual street wear for me.

Show stoppers. Comfy and elegant mixed with old-school throwback done right. I’m a size 9 in most closed toe shoes but Nordstrom only had an 8.5. I went for it, and they fit! Either the 8.5 or 9 would have worked fine. Can’t get over this design, and I received compliments immediately upon wearing them. The perfect casual shoe!

I wasn’t sure about sizing since I previously owned Vans Authentic and had to go a half size down. I wear a women’s 7.5 in almost all my shoes, (ie Converse Chucks) but occasionally I need to go down to a 7, which I did for my Vans Authentic since 7.5 was too loose. I read many reviews for the Old Skool and some said size up, some size down, others true to size. Since it was pretty confusing I decided to just go with what I got before in Vans and got a size 7 women’s. While the 7 does fit, they are a bit tight and uncomfortable. My toes have zero wiggle room, which is a most for me, as I hate my foot feeling cramped. I’ll be returning for a 7.5 since I love the shoes otherwise!
