I was first attracted by the looks of this shoe, the GTX lining, Vibram sole, and quick lacing system. On paper, they seem like the perfect shoe for Winter. When these arrived, I was skeptical about the fit. They're a little narrow in the toe box, and they have some slip in the heal. I wore them for a week with intentions to return them or have them change my mind. I wore them with different socks (thick and thin). After a week of wear, they broke in great! The fit is true to size, and the grippy sole is unmatched! Because the toe box is slightly narrow, I would not purchase these for my main hiking shoes, FYI. Later gators!
Absolutely BIZARRE decision making on the design for these. The fit is gigantic on my average to narrow feet, everywhere but the front of the toebox (where it matters most), where it comes together SO tightly on my big toe, that it'd separate my toenail if I were to hike any distance in them. Typically, that means you try to customize the fit by using insoles (and I have a VERY nice set of custom orthotics that have served me well in several other pairs of hiking or trail running shoes), but these have the insoles GLUED IN so you can't use any custom orthotics, or cushioned insoles - which you'd need, since there is literally NO cushion to the insole or midsole on these.
Absolutely worthless for actual trail use. NO padding in the insole or midsole, but the insoles are GLUED IN, so you can't replace them with custom orthotics, or a cushioned insole. The fit is too large everywhere but the toebox, where it narrows down so severely that it'd destroy you nailbed if you used these for any distance. If you size up for the toe, the heel is low enough that you'll just slide out of the shoes. These are PURELY a fashion shoe.
Awesome shoe, best Vans yet, I have never owned a pair of Vans like these before and they are unreal, I would highly recommend.
Solid and aggressive show that has great support and compliments the calf and thigh muscles
Correct size, very comfortable, extremely quick delivery. Love em
