slip on vans

JIZZLORD

i've been wearing regular skate shoe style vans for years, but i bought a pair of the old school slip ons


i had to get a pair half a size biger than i usually wear, so i was wondering how does the elastic bits fare and will they loose their stretch after a short while as if this happens they'll be more loose. they're perfect at the moment but will they go arse ways soon?

Got a pair a size bigger one day cause they didnt have the style in my normal size, and tbh they lasted the longer than the normal size did.

JIZZLORD

thanks for that.

i have a pair of em i got a year and a half ago. there well battered now but still comfy as fuch. they do loosen up a bit, but its not like i wear em doing exercise or anything, just strolling about

they do loosen up a bit but like they'll not fall off you or anything like that.

most comfortable shoes i ever bought.i love them so much i even wore a pair to my debs with a suit.....

they do stretch a good bit over time.id say mine have maybe stretched from a 9(when i bought them) to about a 10 now.not too bad and still fit comfortably cause i bought them a bit on the small side.

Best place to buy a pair like these?
Schuh?

JIZZLORD

schuh dont do half sizes apparently, so i had to get a 10. i tried the 9, and while they fitted me they were very tight so i said i'd go with the 10 as i can actually slip them on and they're a better fit

Size 6 meself...Bet it would be nigh impossible to get them in that size.
I'd order them online if I could. Any recommended sites guys?

Sorry to hi-jack there jizzlord

I bought mine a good year ago in Schuh in Glasgow size 6. They were mad tight at the start but I just wore them for a few hours around the house untill they started to loosen. Seriously thee most comfortable shoes EVER Can't wait to save for a new pair.....being the broke student that I am.

Getting a pair of these now, seeing as everyone is saying they're so comfortable! Bidding on eBay so will know if I've got them in a few hours.

I got a pair a half size too small cuz they didn't have my size and I HAD to have them, got them about two or three years ago and they're still goin strong, don't wear em every day or anything though, plus they stretched out to fit perfect, got a new pair this year, in my proper size and they just feel weird cuz they're so big compared to my original pair...still breaking them in though!

does the vans website ship to ireland though, i didn't think it did?

JIZZLORD
