Bought these to replace my old ones but upon wearing them a few times I noticed they just weren’t breaking in and were just too tight and hurt my toes. I’ve NEVER had this issue before and I’ve got a couple colours of vans all the same style. The fact vans are wider and more comfortable than most other shoes I’ve worn are the main reason I wear them, I even favour them over converse. I thought maybe a few uses would help them stretch but each time I get sorer feet rather then getting less sore as I thought might happen. My photo shows the old shoes are definitely slightly larger and might explain why the new ones hurt so much and my old ones don’t but I can’t wear these at all so therefore have wasted my money. And I’m aware that new shoes are usually tighter but these are tighter than any shoe I’ve ever worn even my old ballerinas are comfier! They’re definitely not the right size at all. I wasn’t sure if maybe they’d sent the wrong size but it says the right size on the tag so I honestly don’t know what’s happened. If these are genuine, have vans changed their sizes? They really seemed to be genuine so I’m sceptical about buying another pair and if I do it will be from vans themselves to be certain. I’m so gutted!

Have been wearing vans since the 70’s these are as good today as ever. White are great too as they wash in the washing machine and come up great every time
