The Widow model from Vans is a fashionable men's leather trainer. This skate shoe with a padded collar and tongue is both durable and fashionable with its embroidered Vans logo on the side, it closes with a lace through seven metal eyelets. It is lined with textile with a removable and cushioned insole for comfort and mounted with the famous Vans "waffle" non-slip rubber sole.

As good as every other pair of Vans I’ve owned
It’s weird to review Vans cause most people know how they fit. I accidentally bought Eras instead of Authentics, so I’m going to use that for my review.The era is very similar to the authentic and looks prett much the same, but the era has cushioning around the ankle. I personally don’t like this because I don’t skate and I am used to the soft, flexible opening of authentics. But I won’t take a star off cause it’s my fault I got the wrong ones. If you like cushioning, these are great. Keep in mind that all Vans take some getting used to. They are stiff at first, but my 4 year old authentics are the comfiest shoes I own. If you are new to Vans, you won’t be disappointed. They make great shoes. Definitely not worth 50 bucks, but you’re paying for the name. They know they make good skate shoes that everyone recognizes, so they can charge whatever they want. I will be sending these back so I can buy Authentics like I wanted, but I still rate these shoes 5 stars. You will never be disappointed in Vans.

Absolutely fantastic.
Vans are my favorite brand of shoe, so I knew they wouldn't let me down. I bought the all-black Vans because I needed a pair of black shoes as part of my high school jazz ensemble uniform, and they didn't fail. They look really awesome with my jazz outfit, and the Off the Wall logo on the back matches my favorite red tie (my jazz outfit consists of black pants, a black button up shirt, and a red tie).The size for Vans is down half a size than most of the other brands I've worn (I'm usually a seven in women's, and I'm a 6.5 in Vans). If you already have a pair of Vans, you can probably just go off the size of those!In the past, I've heard people complain that Vans hurt when you wear them, but usually they just need to be broken in! It only takes a few days and then the soles should fit to the shape of your feet.

Run Small... But GREAT Sneakers!
Bought these Vans Era sneakers for my daughter as a birthday gift. The first pair I bought in her regular size (women's 9 1/2) but they were way too small. Had to return (no charge thanks to Prime!) and had to go up one whole size (10 1/2). These fit perfect. She LOVES them tons, which makes me happy!!!!!

I will always love my Vans
I will always love my Vans. I was really excited about these all black Vans. They fit well (I already knew my size, however), and have lasted. Thank you Vans, for making quality, comfortable shoes!

NOT! OFF THE WALLS! BUT need to be OFF THE SHELVES!
This shoe is not! OFF THE WALL but literally needs to be OFF THE SHELF as it’s a disgrace to Vans’ reputation. They are Vans as marked, BUT these are the worst Vans I ever bought! The tongue is like super thin cardboard! If you like slipping on vans like me and not tying the laces then don’t get these! The tongue is so flimsy it falls to the sole and then you can literally fit the whole shoe on with the tongue UNDER your foot or in front of your toes even and nothing between your foot and laces!!! ABSOLUTE discrace to the VANS company. FIRE the person who designed this style tongue! I’d rather go barefoot!

Really short
I am used to wearing the Vans Atwood model which features a very traditional shoe height, but these are quite short! I appreciate that this may simply be the style but it's difficult to find a decent pair of pants that won't show your ankle and make you look like your pants are way too short! Good for shorts, never wear them with jeans. For such a large pricetag I would like them to be more versatile. They are quite durable and well-made, though.

Good product, met my expectations.
These shoes fit as expected and are relatively comfortable, the arch is minimal, but that is expected.I cannot speak for the durability of these shoes because I have not worn them a ton, but based on what I have heard from various sources these shoes will last most people a long time.
