This is absolutely one of the best shoes on the market. If you have flat, wide feet then these are the shoes for you. They are not uncomfortable and they do not dig in to your heels like other Vans shoes do. Other than that huge problem that a lot of low top vans have (that I do not know how to fix). These shoes are also very wide, one of the widest shoes I have tried again, that is on the market today, much wider than many other styles. If you are looking for arch support and a ton of cushioning then you will have to buy running shoes but these are ideal for casual everyday wear. I have tried almost every running shoe on the market and nothing fits, until I found these, thankfully I am not a runner. I own many pairs of these even the winter styles and the boots that are based on the Sk8 hi.
