Size Information

What size Vans should I buy?
Our shoes are sized according to the US standard and all our shoes are unisex, so no one is excluded from wearing our kicks!
When purchasing an item from a unisex range, your invoice will reflect the US Men's (default) size.
For example, you might be a US Women's 7.5 however it will show as US Men's 6 at the checkout and on your order confirmation. In this instance, a US Men's 6 is equivalent to a US Women's 7.5.
Need help figuring out your size? Check out our comprehensive size guide.
Alternatively, measure the length from the back of your heel to the end of your longest toe. Compare this length to the table below to find your perfect fit.

Do you have any vegan Vans?
Under the Accent Group umbrella, Vans offers Vegan and vegan-friendly styles.
If you want to avoid leather and suede, many of our classic styles are made from canvas, mesh + rubber. However, we can't guarantee these shoes don't contain any animal products as manufacturers tend to use animal-based products in their glue.
