Everything is just right with these shoes. The material is great, no manufacturing faults and the fit of the sneakers is absolutely perfect. They feel extremely light but still make a robust impression. The best Vans sneakers I've had on my feet in a long time.

just like the first iteration from 20 years ago. Sure, you can complain about the price, but they were almost as expensive back then. AND the white leather version is still in perfect condition. The quality of the gluing is probably still the same. So ok, but could certainly be a bit better. The black and blue ones just disintegrated sometime around 2016..

I had real trouble finding these Vans in Chili and size 11. I guess because they have been out for a while. Finally tracked them down here. Great service, although they were pretty much max RRP at £129.
Rowley is my favourite style of shoe. I have several pairs now. I'm glad they finally released a navy pair.
These shoes are great. I've been waiting for the Navy blue for months.I wear a size 13. Only problem is they run a little small in the toe box. I have the black/gray Rowley XLT that previously came out and the toe box fits, but not on the current shoe.
Used for Skateboarding. I wish they had the half cab insoles. I swapped mine and they work great for my 45 year old knees and back.
Great fit and style. I tend to prefer these in 10.5 whereas most of my shoes are fine at 10.0. Absolute all time fave and, with exception to how long this wait was, I could not be more pleased with the navy release. Knockout throwback to a very deserving shoe from one of the GOATs of skating.
I've been wearing Vans since the late 80's. These are light & comfy Rowley hit it out of the park on this design. Definitely the best shoe other than the old schools I've been wearing for decades.
I always hoped this day would come! I bought these back when they first came out in 01'. I bought 2 pair at that time, i got these purely for the memories and well beacause they were my favorite shoe for the longest time. Even when the shoes didnt fit anymore i rode through the pain lol. Thank you Vans for bringing back the memories i shared with my mom and the day these originally came out. Just recently passed and i was having a horrible day, opened my phone and typed in skate shoe and bam first thing that came up, felt like my mom was saying "im here". To me these are more then shoes, thank you Vans....
