These shoes were great for my active son and held well for 8 months, Christmas gift. He wore them to school every day, then through the Summer and while cycling around the neighborhood most days. The toe seal needed some shoe goo after about 3 months of wear, but we have never found a skate shoe yet that didn't need that. We made sure to water and stain protect them before wear and they have held up great. Here to buy another pair as he has outgrown these!

Absolutely love them. Too tight at first but fit great when I swapped with another vans insert.

Shoes are great. I loved the look and they were comfortable the first time I wore them. Then I went on a date that required walking. After 2 hours I had to change my shoes bc my left heel was being cut open. Right foot fit great. If you buy them have a box of band aids

The gum sole was not as neatly assembled as my other Vans. Also, the dye transfer from the marshmallow (white) was somewhat disappointing, but easily wiped off the the sole and Vans symbol. Overall, I’m happy with them, but the quality control from Vans was unusually lacking.

Nothing is wrong with the show but I just wanna let everyone know, those that have a wide or fat foot, don't buy them. I normally a size 11 in vans but these are too narrow for me.

Pretty shoes. They're too narrow at the toes. Hoping they'll stretch out a bit.

Ankle was a little wider than expected. It would be nice if more colors were available and shoe fit more snug in heel area/ankle area.

Those are very nice and cute shoes, they're really pleasant to the eyes. But, they squeeze a lot in the instep area. The insole of the shoe is too thick, and it leaves very little space for the foot inside.I had to remove it to make my foot feel as comfortable as possible.

After a friend found some rare white and black Gilbert Crockets I went on the hunt for some. I love green, so I ordered these. The green is more forest than kelly. Very cute low style, but my heel slipped out of the cup with each step, and they are narrow. I felt like they were tight for my foot. I have been really unhappy with Vans lately. Recently ordered the pride 2023 old schools and the heel cup is too big. Also what is up with this cushioned tongue trend (not on this style). Y'all gotta get it together. If things don't improve, I'm gonna grow my Adidas collection. Anyway, these Gilbert Crockets look really nice in concept but fail in execution for me.

I've had a pair of the Crocketts in the past. They wore out pretty quickly. Thought I'd give them another chance and these aren't as comfortable as my first pair. IMO - Its a nice looking shoe, but lacks in other areas.

The shoes look great, but have a very tight fit on the top of the foot.

I love the sneakers/shoes, love the styles but VANS is not Fat Feet friendly, they need a larger selection of wide shoes.

I always wear a 9.5 in vans, except for these ones. The toe box is flat and narrow so it’s squeezes my feet like they’re a size to small :(

I love Vans but these have a slightly different shape in the toe. From the moment I put them on to the moment I take them off my toes are CRUSHED.

Really like these shoes for outings with family and dates with my wife since they pop with the white color. Sadly they started to come apart at the outer some in less than a year of owning them. I've been wearing vans since I was in grade school and the only time I've had vans come apart on me is when I skated with them. No skating with these at all. Still a loyal customer but bummed since I can't really wear these anymore.

I'm not liking pop cush or comfy cush shoes. They are too tight fitting.

Bought to use as a daily wear. I typically wear a normal medium width shoe. These are very narrow and have a very tight toe box. I'm going to try and wear a few more times to see if they stretch, but for now I'm dissappointed in the fit.

Even though they look amazing, I had to return them because my heels slip up out of the back tremendously when I walk. They have 7 lace holes instead of the traditional 8, and said lace holes come up around the tongue in a V pattern instead of straight up, which is likely why my foot is not held in tight. The tongue is very puffy and the popcush sole is tall, so there's not a lot of vertical room for your feet; I wish they wore better! Love the texture and look of all the materials.

Nice shoe and I like supporting locals from my home town, my issue is how tight they are, even with the laces loose, maybe I got a bad set but I'm hoping they break in

Its looks make me buy it but the heel makes me regret it is really hard and scratched my heel if you buy it should consider

They look awesome on the web. Once I receive it, the tone of blue does not match the one advertised. It's more like a navy blue. I'm giving it a star just because of the good service.

09/14/2024 - I'm ready to retire my quarantine-era Gilby's and while they're not my favorite, they served their purpose. The problem however, is that there is NOT ONE PAIR available without white bottoms. Gum bottoms matter... black bottoms matter... Diversity is our strength!!

Great lookin shoe,I don't have wide feet per say and these are to tight around foot just above the toe,I imagine you could stretch them out if you wanted like I said they are a really good lookin ,I wear vans pretty exclusively and this is the first time I've had this issue

Awful shoes. I love vans, and this was not what i was expecting. Opened the box and the seam near the tonuge was already busted open. The shoes dont stay on your feet very well because of such a low cut uner the ankle. The insoles arent very comfortable either. Very disappointed in these.
