Vans Tennis Shoes

I have bought many pairs of Vans over the years. I have a 32 year old son who I bought them for when he was in high school and that is all he wanted to wear. I now have an 18 year old grandson who also really likes them and is all he will wear and has worn for the past five years. I believe they are one of the more reasonalbly priced sports shoes on the market today. They are comfortable and durable. My grandson wears his everyday and I usually only buy 2 pairs a year and it is not because they are worn outbut because they are showing so much wear that they begin to look awful. He saves the older ones to wear when he doesn't want to get his new ones dirty. He says one of the things he really likes about them is because the bottom of the shoe gives him such good traction and rocks and dirt do not stick in them like some of the other shoes.
