I have bought Vans before without problems, but this particular pair have quality and consistency issues.

The left shoe is a perfect fit.

The right shoe... crushes my little toe. (Toes are the same size...FYI)

I tried breaking it in and after a while...the same..it freakin hurts my right little toe.

I am now very leery about buying shoes online.  Its one of those things you gotta try on in person, I guess.
