I purchased two pairs of shoes here recently. The manager named Dante helped me out in selecting the shoes to try on. He is so friendly and very helpful! There was an issue with my credit card going through when I went to purchase the items, and he was so kind and put the items on hold for me to purchase the next day. Thank you so much! This is a great store with very friendly, helpful and kind sales associates. Jazmin did a fabulous job in ringing and bagging up my purchases for me. From beginning to end, I had a great time at this store. Thank you very much! read more

Employees here are super nice and helpful! They have good selection of shoes and are very friendly. I highly recommend this store :)

Location: Stonestown Galleria [San Francisco] My teen loves this store and since I never know what style or type of merchandise she likes it's safe to just get her a Vans gift card during my Christmas shopping last weekend. Less headache for me and convenient for the both of us. I arrived at Stonestown around 9:30a on a Saturday. The mall was open but the stores had not opened yet. Before going to Vans I stopped at another store first to take care of some shopping there before it got crowded. I then made my way to the upper level at Vans. I only saw one employee inside the store. Immediately he greeted me as soon as I stepped inside. The gift card transaction took about 5 mins and I was in and out of the store in no time. Fast and friendly. I like it when they know what they're doing. Review #2049 read more

Good selection, helpful workers, fair prices. They have a pretty good selection of clothing and shoes, with many options on skate shoes. Personally, I feel that these are some of the best skate shoes on the market. I wouldn't say this is a skate shop, however they are good for skate clothes and shoes. read more

Vans - Outside of the store - Men's Clothing Near Me - San Francisco, California

RIP Vans Stonestown. Today is their last day. They will close permanently and slowly this mall is going from sad to straight up depressing. One of the few bright spots of Stonestown. Great products and great people. All the best to everyone! read more

I came here with my boyfriend to pick out some shoes for the late portion of my Christmas present. It was unfortunate that they didn't have much of a selection of the shoes I saw online that I really wanted to try on in person, but I fell absolutely in love with these beautiful brown-yellow sk8-mid mte's on sale! They were all out of my size, so Coleman (the guy helping us) suggested I try on a 8.5, which I did-- But I've gotten shoes half sizes bigger/smaller before & it really does make a difference. Coleman sensed my disappointment & offered to see if they had my size online. Thankfully, they had size 8 available & Coleman handed the tablet over for my boyfriend to fill out with his billing information, & just like that, we were done & on our way! Thanks for all your help Coleman! :) read more

Seriously hands down best customer service I have ever experienced! Customer service was on point! It was a busy day too but the two guys on the floor helping people were definitely doing their job! Sean was the one helping us. There was one guy in the stock room bringing shoes out that the two guys on the floor needed. Super fast, super friendly and not pushy at all. Love that they are donating money to Autism too! read more

Classic Vans (all white slip ons) were a part of my middle school band uniform, along with white pants, a white shirt and white gloves. The school provided the blazer, cravat, and hat w/ a plume. While part of me is glad to see that Vans are still around, they're just not my style (they're too casual and unisex). However, I shop at the store for other people and I see that Vans has expanded their lineup of shoes to include clunky, huge shoes for skater types (I don't see the appeal) and new prints including bats, Slayer, hearts, plaids, etc. (okay, I like the bats). You can build your own at vans.com The Vans store sells more than shoes. They also have tee shirts, hoodies, socks, backpacks, purses, studded belts, pants, scarves, and hats for men, boys, and women. And they have skate decks and accessories. The brand has a casual, distinctive look, though it's similar to what you what get at Zumiez. Prices are similar to Zumiez too (moderate). I like the emphasis they have on stripes and checkerboard patterns. And I like the knee high striped socks - they're comfy and mostly cotton. There is a dressing room in the back (it's hard to spot). read more

Walked into Vans, hoping for some fun shoes for the BF. Celeste was the nicest girl ever & friendly as could be She made an easy translation of European size to Vans-speak & we were off to the races. Found a couple of pairs that weren't too outrageous yet spiced up the plain old day to day shoes he had Plus it was BOGO & that's not a bad thing to walk into! Who doesn't love a sale?? Thanks Vans for coming through again! read more

Iron Maiden KILLERS high tops. Fruckin insane! \m/ Keep away from that shoe POSEUR!!!! BTW... I really hate all the trendy hipsters that shop here. read more

There was like 5 salespeople asking me if i needed help when a dude was in the back getting my 3 pairs of shoes. They must have a large shoe storage area in the back because each time it took like 10 minutes to find a different shoe. Great friendly service. Thank you for working on July 4th. read more

I have not bought a pair of vans in over 3 years or so, but going back to this store brought back so many memories of why vans is the original canvas shoe. I got 2 pairs of lace up canvas classics! Yah 2 pairs, you heard right. This store is a lot better than the store in Westfield. They have a great array of clothes, decks, and shoes. I think the layout of the store can improve, but thats just me. Go there and get the classics like Spicoli. read more

I absolutely love Vans shoes! I only go to this location to buy my shoes,no where else. The customer service is amazing. From my past experiences, the customer service has always been helpful to me and very friendly. They have a big range of shoes, the right wall begins with the kids shoes all to the left that I think ends with some Chukka-styled Vans I think. they have benches where you can sit, they are shaped like squares with a limited-edition Vans shoes in the middle (In Feb. it was Yo Gabba Gabba, right now in June its Hello Kitty Vans! They also sell clothes and hats,laces,socks,etc. The prices of the shoes depends on the style, there are some shoes on sale. read more

This piece of poop store.....NEVER EVER has your size. "excuse me, do you have this in a 6.5?" goes to the back to check for like 20mins...... "sorry, we dont have it in 6.5 but we do have it in an 8 and 9, would you like to try those on?" ROAR!! read more

Got my vans on but they look like sneakers... They always have my size. ALWAYS! but they're customer service is crappola. you know how long i have to sit there to get service? like forever! I had to stand on the seats just to get a glance from the workers. i guess it doesn't help that I'm short either. read more

Love this location! Super friendly and helpful staff! Alyssa and Roma helped me out, very fast and friendly customer service.

Over the last two years I've spent about $600 in shoes here for my kids and me. Today I tried exchanging a pair of shoes I had purchased recently and were not the right fit. When I purchased them the sales rep had said they would stretch out a little bit, but they didn't and were very uncomfortable. The sales rep provided no service at all, and within two second and declared them to be too worn for an exchange (they weren't). He was too good to help and clearly didn't care he was going to lose future business. They have a good selection and must be really busy to have such crappy service. I will go back to try shoes on but only buying from Nordstrom's or Zappos where the customer service is significantly better. read more

I've been rocking the Vans (shoes at least) since grade school and they are still my favs. Some of the clothes I like but the current choices are kind of iffy. Still good prices and they do hold up. The service at the store was good. I ended up with new kicks, a couple shorts, jeans and a t. read more

Ask for LINA TRAN to help you find your shoes. She is AWESOME! She'll even tell you if the shoes are good on you are not! (: Location is good. Easy parking! read more

Probably the better of the two Vans locations in San Francisco. What's there to expect? If you need a pair of Vans shoes or merch, it's the place to drop in. There are probably better selections on-line from the Vans site, but if you need in person, this is your place. As far as skateboard parts or decks go, yer prolly better off walking down to Zumiez min the mall (or even better DLXSF, Purple Skunk or SK8's on Haight) but everything Vans in person, this is it. read more

Very helpful staff and friendly. Shaun was very help and nice guy. Thank you for the help!

Vans is a premium brand, so Vans should be careful to ensure customer relations. Salesman Sean to me: "Hey man, tough luck" "Dude, you need to read the fine print" "I don't know where you got these, we've never sold these" I have been a loyal Vans customer for years, but NOT anymore. Switching brands, and definitely WON'T recommend Van Stonestown. read more

Friendly staff, very accommodating. This specific store is great for exclusive drops and unique items.

Superb and friendly staff. I came to replace my set of Vans. Abby, Cole, and Austin "helped" me and somehow I walked out with 3 sets of shoes. And there was no whining from having to work holiday hours like some folks at other stores. Abby got me with the MTE shoes and Cole got me with the pro line of shoes. Austin introduced me to the Surfers Healing foundation, which hit me personally because my son has autism. Merry holidays guys. read more

Vans is one of my favorite stores. I've been wearing their shoes for years and I've gone to dozens of different stores, but this was the first store that I felt compelled to write a review for. The products Vans sells are good, but they are very similar from store-to-store. Thus what I am basing this rating on is the level of customer service that I received the 3 or 4 times I have visited. Every time I have walked into this store someone young and friendly has greeted me with a smile. I instantly feel welcomed and relaxed. If I need anything, be it another size or information, all of the associates are knowledgeable and helpful. It may not seem like much, but in a mall packed with workers who hate their jobs, this store stands out to me as a place that people want to work at (and by extension I want to shop at). You guys rock! read more

i picked up a top and some cool pants being i couldn't find any decent tweed at zumiez and i found this spot a real easy shop to navigate. it seems like the visual merchandising needs some help or a bit more creativity as the one thing that stands out most to me are socks. sure socks are important, essential, but when you have as much space as they do..one would think they would at least make an attempt on transmitting some brand messages with cool lifestyle type ads or just simple mannequin dressing. they have a great selection of all the newest kicks in the backwall and the staff are non-existent, which is just fine by me. read more

They will treat you like a criminal when you return product that the manager doesn't recognize. After all since when is ID necessary when you have the original receipt? I had my full receipt tags and everything attached. Not my problem that you don't recognize your own new products. I intended to ask for a price adjustment since I had purchased the item in store before checking that the online price was much better, and i wanted to keep the item. The associate seemed ready to process my request until the manager, the male with the beard came up and snatched my receipt claimed that oh great he didn't recognize my item and said that oh! Instore prices are usually better yada yada. ... I told him well the online price is better so can you match it, if not im going to return it. So in the end im just waiting for my online order to arrive. Quite annoying for a full price item. read more

I had to exchange a defective pair of shoes the other day. The one shoe had a big air bubble in the center of the shoe between the inner and outer sole. Oliver the cashier at the Stonestown store couldn't have been nicer and more helpful! In fact all of the workers there that evening on 5/24/19 were all very friendly and courteous! It was refreshing compared to being ignored when going into a store! Thanks everyone! Keep up the great job! I hope your manager sees this! read more

I went to Vans to exchange a gift and I ended up falling in love with their shoes and their staff. Vans has come a long way from just clunky skate shoes. They have a great selection of shoes. I have wide feet and most of the shoes are wide! Super comfy. Jeff helped me out with my shoes by showing me all the features and styles. He was super polite and helpful. Jess helped me find a bunch of sizes and she made the exchange super smooth. I definitely recommend coming here not only for the clothing and shoe selection, but mostly for the impeccable and super welcoming customer service. read more

I'm always annoyed after I visit this Vans store. Selection has been hit or miss in the past, but maybe canvas slip-ons are not so popular any more? Who knows. More annoying is the crap music they play too loud, the perennial crowds crowding the shoes and the spotty sales service. I'm probably partly to blame for getting old too, I'm sure. I'll still buy from here since they seem to be cheaper than the online stores now. read more

The employees were helpful, but they were running out of stock. Maybe it is because they dropped the price of the OTW shoes from 90$ down to 60$, I still wanted to check the quality of some shoes I wanted to buy read more

The only reason I go here is because they have the most selection on REGULAR Vans. Plus they usually have my size. Actually they only have my size about 60% of the time, but its only because I'm a size 13 and most places don't carry 12.5+ size shoes nowadays :( !!!! I would go to other stores for Vans Vault, Syndicate, or Skate shoes.... read more

Staff is nice and friendly. I'm not a huge skater and can't stand skinny jeans. But it's a nice store with reasonable prices. I was especially impressed with how well they were able to handle the Pre-Black-Friday crowds without ripping people's heads off. Kudos to them. read more

Pretty bad customer service, except for this one asian girl working there that seemed to be doing all the work. I asked for a pair of chukka lows once and a guy asked me what those were. After pointing out the exact color and size, he came out with the wrong shoe model in a completely different color. Could have just been an honest mistake, but I've experienced things like this more than once. I love Vans shoes but always feel bad about buying my stuff from here. read more

This place has shockingly great service. Everyone was super nice and were working hard to get everyone what they needed. Joe in particular out to us as he was so attentive. Great selection of shoes check out the LXVIs. They look like the classic vans but are way more light and comfortable. read more

This Vans is awesome! all of my experiences for the past year have been wonderful and the employees are friendly, charming and really nice. Through the year, i had no clue what i was looking for, and a few employees helped me out. I could see these employees were a few years older than me, and probably didn't give a crap about me, but they helped me find what i was looking for (new shoes and jeans) and they never got tired of my questions about random things throughout the store. I love their jeans, and constantly buy from them. Each time i go in, no one hollars at me about specials or follows me, but i get friendly employees and awesome service. Workers are really descriptive about each and every item, and i've been keeping an eye on their boards-which are also pretty sick. I would highly recommend this Vans store, more than any other one. Even though their stuff is crazy expensive and somewhat fairly priced the awesome service at atmosphere is worth it. It's all spacious inside, with dressing rooms, so even if it gets busy inside, there's still plenty of space to move around and not feel like someone's watching you. In this store there seems to be a trend-lots of skaters, duh, and just casual dressers. It's weird seeing hipsters, hip or punk people come in here as it's the opposite style of what they usually wear, but whatever. read more

Vans are classics - they just never go out of style! This store carries exactly what I needed in all different colors, varieties, and styles. The wide range of sizes made it easy for my big flippers to slide into a comfortable pair of weekend sneakers. The staff was also laid back and helpful, which made the experience pleasant. I will keep my eye on this store for sales in the future :D read more

Make sure you have Eddie when you buy your next pair of kicks from this Vans store!

everytime i come in here to look for my authentics, theyre either sold out or out of my size. the only thing that keeps me coming back is the fact that the other clsoest vans store is in downtown and when i go there its ussually hard just to get thru the door read more

OMG! This is such an amazing store, the best Vans I've ever shopped at. I would give this place 6 stars if i could. It is way bigger than the downtown store and the associates are way helpful. Two girls helped me there (Lina and Nicole), they were soo nice and got me not just my shoes but these other ones I didnt see, which i end up buying anyway. There was this one obnoxious feller (justin, i believe) who wouldnt stop talking to me and kept offering me socks. He was trying to use his sex appeal on me but i was totally not diggin his style. Overall, the place was excellent. If all of the workers were like the two girls that helped me this place would be the best. read more
