Zappos is truly amazing. I received these in one day and found them to be slightly large, I needed a pair for the weekend and contacted their customer service and they immediately placed a new order for me which I received the next day!! Amazing!!! For reference I am a 6.5 in the regular old skools and the 6 in the platforms fits me perfectly.

LOVE these and they're my first pair of Vans! Walked for 3 long days all over Manhattan in June and they were super comfortable and cute.
Admittedly part of my comfort system were Thorlo brand tennis ankle socks which I bought in black so they disappear into the all black Vans shoe. My feet could breathe all day long despite the miles of concrete and museums.
Happy to report they didn't need any breaking in either. I had gone on a couple of 3-4 mile walks close to home before our trip to make sure but all was well from the very first time.
So happy to add these to my walking shoe wardrobe!

My shoe collection is huge but these are in my top favorites. Very trendy right now and I’m looking forward to wearing them all year. Super comfortable, a little tight to put your foot in initially because the laces are difficult to loosen, but no problems once they’re on. Definitely recommend

I love these shoes because
1. Price was unbeatable;
2. Comfort and fit were perfect;
3. They were on my front porch the next day, and
4. No one else has a pair of Vans like me!

I ordered a men’s size 7 which is women’s 8.5 or 8 1/2. It fits perfectly with room to wiggle my toes!

I love them! They came a day earlier than expected and they are perfect. A little tight but I’ll just have to “break them in” so to say.

These were a half size too small. I wear an 8 in slip on Vans. Returning for 8.5. Other than that, perfect!!

I love these shoes! They’re fashionable and super comfortable to wear to work and that’s something to say when you work retail! Ive been really into platforms too so getting a classic shoe with a platform was a great idea. I don’t regret making the purchase.

I wanted something cute to wear with a dress to a concert so I could dance. I did not want them to be a one off. I wanted them to be something cute I would wear with other things as well. These gold Vans fit the bill. I have already got a ton of compliments on them. I was able to dance the night away and my feet were so happy. I can't recommend these enough!

Super cute slip ons, easy to clean if needed, did have to size up from my usual size because of the material

I truly love this pair of vans, they are easy to wear and pair with outfits and I even use them to help dress up and outfit. The are easy to maintain and if any dirt gets on them, the dirt tends to wipe of really well. My sister, dad and I all rock these.

I got the Glow Frights Classic slip ons and I absolutely love them! I got a few other pairs, but these ones were the only ones that weren't super tight on the top of my foot and the fact they glow in the dark, I mean, hello! Definitely no hiding under the bed or anything. Haha!

I haven't bought a pair of Vans since high school and I don't regret buying this pair at all! The platform doesn't look as overwhelming as I thought it would. Super cute! I'm normally a size 8 in Nike (24.5cm), but I got a 7.5 in these, which was the size I got back in high school, but I'm a size 8 in Vans slip ons.

My fist pair of Vans. I love them! I love the little platform and the fit is true to my size which is size 7. Zappos delivery was right on time. I would definitely order from them again!

These are very cute and stylish, white platform sneakers to wear if you're not going to do a lot of walking. There is little, if any, arch support. I am an old lady with previous plantar fasciitis problems, so after a bit of walking around I began to feel the lack of arch support. I love the way they look and feel and will wear mine with an orthotic.

Let me start off by saying that these shoes are ???. Comfortable and great looking! On a huge side note I would like to say that I ordered these a first time and never got the shoes although they showed as “delivered”. I contacted Zappos and of course they sent me another pair, which I really appreciated. I did everything I could to find out what happened to my previous order so I can return them, but unfortunately nothing came up. I also found out my notifications were off so I never found out when they actually got delivered. (Which ended up being a day before the estimated delivery) My point issssss when you make an order always have your notifications on and always be attentive as to when your shoes will come, if you don’t see them. check around the area you live in ASAP ! I have orders multiple shoes on this website and this has never happened . I suspect someone in my apartment area came up on them, but I won’t go into detail about that because I might just be wrong. I know things happen to orders sometimes, but that feeling is sometimes there. Anyways, a HUGE THANKS TO ZAPPOS and their loyalty team ! Y’all Rock ! ?

These are exactly what I was looking for. Comfy to wear all day at work or out shopping. I was nervous about the arch support but it’s enough that they aren’t uncomfortable. Highly recommend

Okay so I am normally a 10 in women's so I ordered my size accordingly. They were a tad small on me, BUT FEAR NOT! I called the customer service number and spoke the the NICEST lady by the name of Joia. SHOUTOUT! I asked if I could exchange them for a half size bigger. Before we even hung up the phone, I received a confirmation email that my new pair was on the way to me! I received them within a day at no additional charge. They were the perfect fit and truly a timeless style. The platform was the perfect height; not too high, not too short. Awesome summer purchase and I would recommend Zappo's all day!!
