VansMen's Atwood Sneaker

I purchased these partly to take my order over £20 and thus saving me £4.99 on postage that I was being charged for another item. I happened to come across these on offer for £25 saving £20 on list plus saving the £4.99 on postage I was being charged for the other item. I just happened to need some new trainers and I have owned Vans before so this was a no brainer. I effectively got them for £20. They were delivered very promptly as is usually the case with most Amazon items. They were available in loads of colours (as usuaI I chose boring all black) and half sizes which is vital for me as I am a half size. They have excellent reviews on YouTube and are seemingly very well made and look durable as is normally the case with Vans. I have worn them for a few weeks and have had absolutely no issues at all with them (normally I always wear down one side of the sole very quickly or the heel support collapses almost immediately on some other makes of trainers I have owned but no such problems here). They are a medium width which is good for me but the sole seems slightly thinner than is normally the case with other Vans I have owned so you can feel stones etc to some extent but not so much as to be annoying and they are very grippy. They do not have the thick padding that suede Vans usually have particularly around the heel but they are light and comfortable. All in all I am delighted with the purchase.UPDATE May 2022. Just a fairly small hole in one toe despite me wearing these every day (yes every day) Soles shows some wear but not excessive and they're not quite as comfortable/cushioning as they were when new. They have faded slightly but I think some people use black boot polish to make them look as new but I'm not bothering doing that. Considering treating myself to a new pair of Vans soon when they are discounted again.

Goes with everything I wear, good comfort as usual, colour is nice, material is always good, never a complaint with vans

Well these are really posh gym shoes, and very good they are as well. No idea how long they will last, but I generally change these every season/year depending how much use they get. I don't get how some reviewers expect this kind of shoe to last for years - if you want rugged walking shoes, then buy those! I have been doing some heavy gardening work and they are fine for that as long as you don't drop heavy stones on your foot. They are made from good quality materials, the laces are long enough even generous, and it's easy to adjust them to suit your feet. All in all I am very happy with these, and think they are worth the small price premium commanded by the brand.

The shoes do not disappoint expectations. Typical Vans quality which in my opinion is not exalted by its comfort. I found the canvas a little too stiff but I imagine they become more comfortable over time. The color is quite light. Online you can see some photos of a darker red and others of a lighter red. The reality is the lighter red ones.

I like the colour and very smart for every day walking

True to size and great fit

Great shoes comfy reasonable price fast shipping spot on.

As described, comfortable and pleased with product. Good value.

Made well.

Really liked them they were true to size

They are the perfect fit. They look great with no issues. My Husband loves his new shoes.

Had previous converse for about 5 years before needing a new pair. Just got these to replace the old ones. Nice fit, good cushion, comfortable. Would prefer white laces, but that’s an easy switch.

Fits just like a shoe
