My son loves these shoes! He is 8, and wears them every day. The only complaint we have is that, for my son, the zipper doesn't open enough to let him slide his foot in without untying the shoe. So the zipper is fairly pointless, but he doesn't care. Maybe it's just him, or maybe it's the design of the shoe. Remember the shoe is furry inside, so it's definitely a cold weather shoe. Perfect for Idaho.

I bought these in hopes my son could wear them with his AFOs (orthotics). These don't really work well for that purpose. The zippers don't go down far enough, and for us, they were not quite wide enough. However, these issues would not be issues for anyone just wishing to wear the shoes over feet. The shoes are totally as expected, and I would have loved to be able to use them.

Who doesn’t love vans:) My 5yr old boy is obsessed with shoes and I buy them all through Zappos. Everything about Z is awesome. Fast shipping, fast exchanges, fast fixes, everything. All my kids have gotten many vans (all shoes) from this site. ??

9 year old wanted solid black with white laces. So I ordered these and got white laces separate to change them out! We definitely encourage individuality! She also has been able to get them on and off easily due to zipper on back. So the zipper is a Must!

My son loves these Vans. He is 8 years old and has a wider foot so the Old School slide-on Vans don't fit him but the lace up Vans fit! These are cool because he can just unzip and remove shoe. He has owned Vans for YEARS and the to are a durable shoe for kids!

My 8 year old son loves his new shoes. I love how there is a zipper on the back so he doesn’t have to tie his shoes every time he puts them on & off!

Bought these for my son and he loves them! We waited for quite a wile for them to be back in stock, but it was well worth it. Very comfortable and the zipper on the back cuts about 5 minutes off of our morning routine!

These shoes are comfortable and built to last. My son loves the robotic, dinosaur design & especially loves putting them on by himself with the back zipper.

We bought these to go with my daughter's Halloween costume, but they can be worn for other purposes. They are so pretty. My daughter loves them.

This was for my 4 year old grandson and he loves them. The only thing that I can mention is that he has wide feet and it is difficult at times for him to put his shoes on.

Great shoes! My son has multiple pairs and as he is growing, we just stick to buying him Vans. I like the dark colors because boys love to get dirty .

My 3 y/o absolutely loves this Sk8-Hi shoe, it's her "go-to" shoe. I'd recommend going up a full-size up when purchasing. They run a little small.

I want to thank Vans for making a shoe that is very inclusive. I'm not sure if they added the zip in larger sizes for people with developmental and other physical disabilities, but our family loves these shoes for that reason and they are also stylish. Our son is visually impaired and struggles with getting shoes on. These are so easy to put on, but they don't look any different than the other awesome Vans' styles. They also offer great support for any active person. We love this company!

Shimmer and Shine! But beware sizing is off. My daughter (Almost 6y/o) loves her new shoes. Love the tie and zipper options. Love the shimmer and shine! Only downfall with Vans is the size chart is way off (too small). We followed Vans sizing instructions and the shoes we ordered accordingly, were too small. My daughter has two different sized feet at the moment. We measured both. The left foot was 6 3/4" OR 17.15cm. We selected 17.5cm on Vans, which suggested SZ 12. The right foot was 6 1/2" OR 16.51cm. We selected 16.5cm on Vans, which suggested SZ 10.5-11. We've ran into this problem in the past with Vans measurements. Thankfully we ordered 2 different sizes just in case (SZ 12 & 12.5). But we shouldn't have to do that if we follow the size chart. The SZ 12 was too small. The 12.5 fit her great. Vans, please update your size chart and change the "cm" to "in". It would make purchasing a whole lot easier.
