These shoes are sturdy enough for 240 lb volleyball phenom. If they work for athletes they will work for you!

I bought these Vans for my son for Christmas. He loves the color and texture of the shoes. A great buy.

These are really comfortable with the Ultra Cush insoles and light weight. nice for walking too. i use these for long boarding and they're awesome. can't go wrong with the waffle grip outer soles. These shoes do run small, by about a 1/2 size. had to return for a larger size from what i usually wear for Vans skate shoes, which are Half Cab Pros.

However with the newer color ways i.e blue with gum toe and white gum toe has vents on both the inside and outside. The stitching on the outside vent will rip over time and from skating.

Gave these as a gift, and they loved them! I immediately noticed how light these were! They seem to be super comfortable though and offer a lot of protection for when you are out cruising around!

I got these as a gift for my brother and this is what he had to say: super comfortable shoes that don’t feel like normal Vans. Skate sole has a really good feel, they do feel a bit uncomfortable when it comes to arch support, but they look so fresh that I don’t really care.

Great waffle cup and design. The Duracap is not uncomfortable like in some van shoes. The shoes run about a half size big. Lux liner acts like another sock inside the shoe, but is not intrusive. The Footbed is sewed into the shoe. Overall great shoe and good skate shoe.
