Love these slip-ons! Needed the wide width as the regular width never stretched out enough.

The shoes feel quite tight, so much so I nearly returned them, but I thought maybe they need to be tight to stay on. I do like the shoes and since I cannot get them in a wider width or larger size, I'm going to give it a shot. Their compact overall size makes them ideal for motorcycle touring evening wear.

I bought these for my grandson. He's been wanting a pair of vans for a while but they wouldn't fit his wife feet. I heard from someone not long ago that they started making wide shoes I ordered immediately They fit him perfectly.

Let's talk about comfort slip on's! The reason you made comfycush was because you wanted comfort. So make the wide slip on shoes with Comfycush for comfort ! So doesn't that makes sense.? Love your wide slip ons So let's add some comfort

As a decades long Vans consumer I have always wished for a wide model and at last it has become a reality! After you go with the pro or comfy Cush models it's hard to go back. I would recommend holding out for a wide model in your preferred shoe model. But thank you Vans for making them wide!!

I love VANS, and have many pairs for myself in all different patterns. I bought the 9 1/2 wide for a gift, and they are not any wider than a regular

12 1/2 would be nice. 13's are a little too floppy and big. I ordered a 12, hopefully they won't be too small

Wanted to rock Vans again...when did shoes get so narrow? Bring back those Bucky Laseks with the waffle insole. The BEST shoes I've ever owned. Bar none. These are okay but run large. The wide width was spot on though...good luck.

Fit and size were fine out of the box. Very minimal for insole and support, but I’m fine with it. My disappointment is the comfort has fallen off before the end of the 5th month and unlike the Vans of my youth the insoles are not removable. Apparently that is only available on the pro-line now. Which doesn’t come in a wide. The wide line appears to be fashion only.

Thank goodness for hassle free returns - I ordered my normal size but these shoes were too small. I guess I have to go to a Vans store to try them on.

They look amazing however on width it was wonderful but my foot is fat and the top part of my feet just didn't make it through. The stretchiness of the slip one aren't where they need to be for wide feet.

For reference, I am an 8.5 wide, with feet that are 4" at their widest point, which is around a standard D width. I was disappointed I couldn't tell the difference between these are regular width vans at all, they squished my feet and the top was quite tight. I might try sizing up which has worked for me before, maybe they just run small. I was exciting to see a wide width product but now I'm just not sure what the point is.

The tongue is a little tight but I'm hoping they just need to be broken in. Hopefully they decide to make the all black slip-ons in wide size as well.

Look great, they are admired by public but since they are %0% more than other shoes. They don't sell as well as they could. Hard to keep clean. Comfortable...!

I have pretty normal sized feet but once I got pregnant I found that most of my shoes were fitting a little snug, not extremely uncomfortable but would leave marks after a while so when I saw these I thought they would give me some extra room and even enough to wear cozier sock. I was shocked that these seemed tighter than a new pair of regular vans. I even checked to see if they sent me the regular size and not the wides. They were marked as wide but extremely tight. I tried on a regular pair of fairly new slip ons and they fit about the same. Also I thought it was strange the left shoe was much tighter than the right. I'm hoping to break them in a bit but as of now they're uncomfortable so I might have to stick with my old pair.

1Too expensive!! 2ZERO arch support * ZERO Cushioning. 3Very little slip resistance! They could have easily placed a crepe-rubber soleavailable in at least 4 colors. Which looks brand new for years. 4Wide Widthsonly plain white canvas & black/white check board. Any other wide are $90-$100. 5Manufacturers' have NOT updated this style inforever.

The black slip-on hasn't been made in a women's 6 wide for as long as it's been available. It's very strange. But I have a white pair, and they fit great! No more wearing a 7 regular and pretending I look ok.

wide was not wide enough also the black and white check was yellowed(not bright white like it should have been. Even if I downsized 1/2 it would not have been wide.

Proper-they have a better variety of "wide" sizes

I wanted slip on's purely for comfort. It's nice to have a wide option and plenty of room for insoles and/or socks. That said I probably won't be ordering Vans slip-ons again as the elastic is so rough it is painful and I can't imagine wearing these barefoot without them cutting into my skin. I'll keep them for transitional months to wear with socks (super nerdy and unattractive but hey, that look seems to be in style these days).

They really need MORE half-sizes for the slip-ons. Not like they wouldn't sell these are like the Converse All-Stars...but they don't fit as well. I bought it at 12 too small. I bought a 13, floppy and too big. Come on Vans...

I always buy slip ons.. I never have had issues.. this most recent pair has poor finishing on the edges of the sole and sides.m getting pebbles stuck between the two when I walk. It's pretty annoying and kinda disappointing. If this is Vans quality moving forward, I'm going to have to find a new shoe.

Man, it's a real bummer that Vans hasn't evolved to accommodate wide widths after all these years. Back in the '70s, Vans were the go-to kicks for surfers and skaters like me, especially the iconic mono style and classic wino slip-ons that epitomized the Southern California lifestyle, well into the 1980s. That timeless wino style and grippy sole were unbeatable. But as times have changed and people's needs evolved, it's surprising that they haven't expanded their sizing options to include those of us with wider feet. It feels like they're missing out on a whole segment of loyal customers who still love the brand but can't comfortably wear their shoes. Vans, it's time to ride the wave of inclusivity and make some changes!
