The platforms aren't as tall as I anticipated- but I love them!

They were adorable, looked well constructed and I wanted to wear them so badly, unfortunately I couldn't get my foot in due to my high instep and the elastic between the tongue and shoe just wasn't stretchy enough :-(

I almost sent them back because they felt too tight but I have other slip ONS the same size so I kept them and they were perfect by the end of the day!

I love these shoes, they’re exactly the style I like. However, I’m disappointed with the size, they run small. Women’s Size chart on this site says that US 6.5 is 37 (23cm) in Euro size which is exactly my size and I trusted the chart, but when I received the package, it appeared that US 6.5 is 36.5 in Euro size. I still were them, but not as often as I intended, because they hurt my feet.

I’m a Vans veteran and my new classic slip-on platforms did not disappoint. The shoe is very consistent in terms of comfort, size and quality. They are my go to spring casual sneaker and look great with leggings, jeans and joggers.

Not sure why everyone kept saying these shoes run big. I usually like to have room for my shoes especially since I walk a lot. Sadly, these shoes run half a size smaller. I'm a true size 8, and got the shoes in women's size 8, but they are more like a size 7.5
Unfortunately, in the past vans shoes usually fit tight but loosen up after a few weeks. I assume the same for this style but only now after wearing them out several times I'm realizing they run to small and it prob won't loosen up as much as I had thought..
I'm trying to figure out if I should resell them since I can't return. Please go a size up unless you were half size shoes

Overall, these are pretty comfortable and cute, but although they are fluffy and cozy for the most part, the "tongue" area that rests against the top portion of your foot is really scratchy! I ended up having to put moleskin tape and also wear socks that cover that part. Seems strange that they wouldn't make that area soft like the rest of the shoe!

Runs a little big! I reordered a half size down from my normal vans size and I think they’ll fit better (:

Shoes are very cute. I bought half a size down since thats what a lot of the reviews recommended but they were too snug (I wear socks) so I repurchased my usual size and they were still too small so I plan to reorder (again) a full size above my usual size if they are ever restocked

I originally followed the advice of other reviewers and ordered a half size smaller but they were way too tight so I ordered my normal size 8 and they fit perfect. They are snug at first but do loosen up after a few wears. I wouldn’t say these are great for comfort but they work for short walks and running errands.

These shoes are the best! I have wide feet and had no issues with the fit. Also, these shoes have more cush and support on the bottom! I spent a whole day in the park with these and had no problems. They definitely run a bit longer, so you may want to size down a half. My only complaint is my left shoe is very pointy on the inside as if it was not finished in the factory.

I love the style of both the slip on and the lace up platforms. I am size 7.5 and both styles were half a size bigger on me. I ended up with a size 7.
Just as a side note, the regular lace vans run true to size on me. I would Love to Vans to include cushion and arch support into these iconic shoes. :D
Also, I highly recommend that you spray these with a stain guard if possible. ;D

Weird sizing compared to normal slip on. Got half size smaller like other reviews and was too tight and uncomfortable. Got regular size fits great then after weeks they kinda flop at heel. So maybe get your smaller size and be in discomfort for few weeks.

I'm typically a 5.5 in vans, and they fit me perfectly. However, the 5.5 in the platforms seem to be a half size too large. They constantly slip and rub against the back of my heels. Would recommend going down a half size. I am going to keep them and wear them with thick socks because I am out of state and don't feel like dealing with the exchange nonsense.
I'd also recommend:
UGG, Nike, Ariat.

Read reviews that said to size down, so I sized a half size down. Fits, but still slides off my heel. Will probably buy heel grips for the inside of the shoes because I do like these and want to keep them. These are my first platform shoes and they are amazingly lightweight and does not make my petite frame look chunky. Super comfortable as well!

Purchased these for thicker, comfier style as many report. Some reviews say slighter bigger and they are. I went with 7.5 because regular Vans in 7 now pinch my toes and I wash them they feel even smaller. Even knowing they might run larger I still went with 7.5 for when I wash and air dry. They are slightly too big but not bad. Just wear no show socks and so far no blisters. Love these. Even with break in period still more comfortable than regular Vans. Would definitely buy exactly the same in different color again! FYI I'm 49 years so need extra cushion and thinking might add an arch support since I have room in the shoes. Hope this helps others.

Cute shoes! Shoes came fast, left shoe fits slightly loose compared to the right shoe? Not sure if it’s just a defect in product or what’s the deal.... no other shoes Ive purchased or have - have this issue?

The shoes fit true to size. After reading some other reviewer, I was nervous to order my regular size (6), but went for it. 6 fits well. The shoes are maybe a tab longer, but they are pretty narrow (but not too small), so they stay put on feet, and the heal does not slide.
