Customer Reviews Vans Rowley XL III

Great looking shoe - The only problem I have is they are very stiff at first.

Nice Shoes - Great shoes, comfortable, size was dead-on for me. A nice shoe with a leather look, yet vegetarian friendly.

Comfy shoes that look good!!! If you want some confy shoes that look goos then pick the rowleys. THEY ARE THE STYLE!!

My boyfriend loves these shoes! I bought these shoes in brown for my boyfriend. He uses them for everyday wear and for skateboarding. He says they are comfortable and I think they look great. Zappos is a great deal!

Awesome Vegan Shoe - After my long searching I came across this Vegan Pro Skate Boarder shoe by Geoff Rowley. I am amazed at how comfortable the thick tounge feels on the feet and how the insole that the shoe came with is pretty comfy!! At last a non-leather, comfortable shoe, for a great price!!

Great shoe! I have been buying Vans for many years and I can say these are the best I've owned. Comfortable and the black/grey color make these look great with anything!

Best shoes ever! These shoes are awesome, they are very supportive compared to any other skate shoes, and they are super low profile. They are also very flexible, a great shoe for bmx, and mountain biking.

Van's Rowley- I never had a problem finding comfortable vegan shoes that I also liked until recently. It took me a while to find them, but I finally did with the Van's Rowley. I got them in brown and I think they're very comfortable and appealing to the eyes. I recommend them for those who like Rice Dream non-dairy ice cream and Fourth of July parades.

Super Comfortable!! These are by far the most comfortable shoes I have ever owned. Super soft, great fit and they look sweet too! I highly recommend these shoes to anyone looking for a comfortable, great feeling shoe that works well with anything.

Good Shoe - This shoes are the best skate shoes I have ever had. I had the xl2 so when the xl3 came out they were just as good. They have the best grip of any skate shoe I've had.

My son loves his new shoes. We received them within 2 days. Very fast shipping and great service.

vans good, felt bad - A great shoe, definately worth but the money, but unfortunately the black felt gets worn away quickly if you skate alot. therefore you're left with a few gray patches, but its worth it because i would have to say its the most comfortable shoe i have ever owned.

Amazing shoe - The new vans XL3 is an amzing shoe I bought it for skating and it turned out to be the best skate shoe I've ever owned the comfort is amazing the look is awsome which to me truly matters b/c I care what I look like, which I hope you do too. lol. And all in all these kicks are great.

Great shoes - I've recently bought these shoes for my fiancee. He has always been very difficult to shop for since he wears a 15 and is flat footed but these have been the shoes for him. After wearing them for a bit I have not heard a single complaint from him. The suede does wear on them a bit if not careful (which my fiancee isn't) but is not bad for an animal free shoe. Vans are the way to go.

awesome shoes - The Rowley Xl3 are the best shoes I have ever had. They are comfortable, look good, really light,and are good for skating. You get them.I highly recommend buying these shoes.I got the brown ones and they are flipping sweet.

Great kicks - If you've ever had Rowley's before you'll love these. The faux leather looks great - not like true leather but who wants these to look like wingtips? Great styling and the usual vans excellent comfort. Love 'em.

These shoes are money. I can honestly say I've never owned a pair of Vans in my life before, but I couldn't resist these in white for the summer. They are amazingly comfortable and great for whatever (I don't skateboard); I played golf in them yesterday. Great shoe, great look, super comfy.

Tongue - I am a big fan of the Rowley. The only thing I felt had a different feel to it was the thick, stiff tongue. I prefer a thinner type of material for this part of the shoe.

Rowley XL III - They are great shoes. Look awesome. Only thing is you have to wear them in and they have to be a 1/2 size bigger than your foot.

Smaller than the XL II's - I have the XL II's in size 11.5 so I ordered these in 11.5, too. Unfortunately, the XL III's are about a half smaller.

Solid, simple, shoe - A solid shoe with a slim and simplistic design that makes it look sweet and skate just the same. The Vans Rowley’s are a consistently good line of shoes, and the Rowley XL3 is no exception. I was shopping for a slimmer, grippy-er shoe that gave me more control than the padded DVS’ or Lakai’s I had been getting prior to recently. I bought this shoe tight to my foot, and I can tell that my control over by deck and grip to the tape is substantially greater and easier. In short, I had a specific need and this shoe fulfilled it; so if you have that same need, get this shoe.

I like them - These are probably the most comfortable Vegan skate shoes I have owned. Order 1/2 size bigger then your normal shoe though, as they seem to run small, maybe even a full shoe size if you plan to put inserts in them.

Sharp looking shoe, fairly comfy.

Very good shoe, but falls short of some of Vans best - Let me start by saying that I purchased these shoes because Vans does not make the Heath, Emory or Maestro any more. (I am not happy about that as those are my favorite shoes for wearing around) I purchased the navy with white stripes and I have to say, they look pretty good. They are not as sturdy as my Heaths or Maestros. As is the case with all Vans, they fit EXTREMELY small. They also have almost no arch support. I wear custom made orthotics with all of my shoes, but I would recommend at least wearing Superfeet inserts or something similar. I wear a 15 in most brands but have to wear a 16 in Vans. Overall a good, comfortable, good looking shoe.
