The color was not as expected and it seems like Vans changed their product because I've been wearing this model for some years now, bought a few pairs of it throughout the years always the same size, and now the shoe is much harder to put on so it feels smaller, but then after it's on, the foot moves around in the shoe. A smaller size just won't go on because the opening is too narrow.<br />Returned the shoe and went to the store to try on a few more pairs and had the same problem. The salesperson said they're getting a lot of similar complaints lately.<br />I loved my Vans and i hope they fix up the model.
