Our take on the Vans Classic Slip On Checkerboard Mauve

The Vans Classic Slip-On in Checkerboard Mauve is a low-profile canvas sneaker with the brand's signature checkerboard print, here in a muted pink-mauve. It has elastic goring at the sides, a cotton lining, an EVA insole and a rubber outsole, so it goes on without laces and packs flat. It is a unisex casual shoe, and this listing is for a size 5 medium width. The latest best price is $55 at 6pm.com as of November 3, which sits at the low end of its usual $50 to $65 range.

Questions and answers

Is $55 a good price for these?
Yes. The Classic Slip-On usually sells for $50 to $65, so $55 at 6pm.com as of November 3 is near the low end. Checkerboard colorways rarely drop far below $50.
Do they run true to size?
Most owners say yes, and Vans lists them as medium width. If you are between sizes or have wide feet, size up half a size.
How do they compare to the Classic Slip-On in black and white?
Same shoe, same canvas, goring and rubber sole. The mauve checkerboard is a seasonal color, so it is often discounted more than the core black-and-white pair.
Can I wash them?
Yes. Remove the insoles and wash on a cold, gentle cycle, then air dry away from heat. Do not put them in the dryer, which can warp the rubber.
What is in the box?
One pair of shoes. Insoles are already fitted, and there are no extra laces because the shoe has none.
When is the price lowest?
Vans slip-ons tend to dip during end-of-season sales and around back-to-school clearance. Seasonal colors like this mauve checkerboard see the deepest cuts.
