Went in last second just before they closed to get a shoe. The lady was nice enough to still let us in. We knew exactly what we were looking for and they were able to check the back for sizes quickly. Shoe was not too expensive. They also had a good selection of backpacks. read more

Vans - Backpacks - Shoe Stores Near Me - Tustin, California

Discounts going on for Memorial Day, and when you add that to the Vans account rewards points, that equals great savings! All of their shoes are unisex, and some are very comfortable, others feel too heavy. Best to try them on first before buying. Oh and there's a pretty heavily discounted rack with some cute clothes. It's definitely worth a stop this holiday weekend. read more

Brayden and Isaiah helped me and my family get new shoes today. Both of them were super helpful, courteous, and went above and beyond to make sure we had a great experience. Thanks again you guys! read more

The most incompetent store ever. It takes 2 employees 20 minutes to look up stock for a pair of shoes. One of the employees being a manager. And during those 20 minutes, they're just swapping stories and making commentary. While customers are waiting. 30 minutes of my time wasted for something that should have taken under a minute. read more

This location of Vans is in the Tustin Marketplace area. Compared to other locations, it is easier to access since the storefront has direct access from the parking lot, unlike other Vans where you may need to navigate through the mall or shopping area. It's convenient if you wanted to make a quick run in and out. I came here because I was looking for comfortable walking shoes for an upcoming trip. Living in Orange County, my primary footwear of choice are my Rainbow flip flops, but those won't be appropriate for where I plan on going. Jessie H helped me in the shoe section. She was super informative and helpful. Since I was planning on doing a lot of walking, she recommended their ComfyCush shoe line where it has a lightweight feel for walking and a soft cushion padding. Due to the padding and things, if you try on this shoe, get a half size larger than usual. I tried on the Old Skool ComfyCush ($75) in the Black. I also asked to try on the Grey Authentics ($55), cause my boyfriend has the same pair in men's size. I really appreciated that Jessie strung the laces for me super quick and nicely. I tried a style on each feet and took a few circles around the store. The authentics are so cute and I would love to match with my boyfriend but for the purpose of walking long distances and being comfortable, I had to go with the comfycush. I can always come back to get the authentics another day. Honestly, I probably will get them on a subsequent visit. In addition to the friendly service from Jessie H, the other sales associates at the store were also friendly and engaging. They were very helpful and fun to chat with while I was trying to narrow down my decision. I appreciated their above and beyond service and I was more than happy to do the store survey for them. I will definitely come back to this location for future shoe purchases and other Vans products. read more

The Location of this Van's store is at the Tustin Market Place . I was greeted by a young man named Brayden. He gave me such great customer service. I mentioned I used to buy Van's in my younger years, his response was Van's are timeless they are for all ages. I was going to buy two black pairs one for walking other for errands etc. He said take a look at the grey pair very neutral will go with everything. I said they may show more dirt? His response Van's look better with a bit of wear.. Of course I took his advice. So I have a black walking shoe, and a Grey neutral slip on. So Happy he gave me his opinions to help me out with my purchase and Best of all Van's is very lucky to have this guy represent their company. Thanks Brayden for your help today. read more

I really enjoying going to this store. The employees are tip top friendly! Every single one was beyond sweet. But I have to address how (Jay) she was outstanding with customer service. She assist me and my son until he was satisfied with the section he wanted. She was courteous, friendly and very patient with us. Go Jydrianna!! read more

After ordering a pair of vans Old School Velcros for my grandson online for pick up, we later found the Velcros did not fit, even tho they were the same size as his tie ups. Confused and worried we would not find a bigger size I called the store. After being assured there were plenty in stock we rushed over. WOW! We found the most amazing team of individuals working in store #13 on 12/22!! Each person we interacted with was attentive, knowledgeable and very professional. I looked for Kainoa, the gentleman who reassured me on the phone and agreed to help check the shoe fit for me before buying. I was relieved from stressing about sending my grandson back home (out of the area) with the wrong fit or w/o his new vans altogether. To top my experience off, while handling the exchange, Wesley offered to write Kainoa's name on the receipt for me as I was sure I'd forget it. Words are not enough to describe this awesome crew individuals! read more

Very sweet and helpful staff. Always been a good experience at this location. I've never actually been to a vans store that didn't have good service or a friendly helpful staff. read more

Alexia went above and beyond to make my visit a successful one. I know in her eyes she was probably just "doing her job". But with so much subpar customer service at so many places these days, her helpfulness was much appreciated. read more

Franchesca is always helpful and welcoming, They have good deals, awesome place to shop read more

I went in to exchange some shoes for my kid today around 630pm. There were two gentleman working, both of them had top tier customer service. They were very nice and super helpful. I will definitely be back to this store. read more

This store is kinda smaller than the others but they do have different styles of Vans. We come here for not only shoes but clothing or sunglasses. Everyone is very friendly & customer service is great! read more

Awesome staff. Loved the team work to help me pick out shoes & attend me on getting me some fits Thank you Fuentez and Francesca for helping me. Definitely coming back when I'm out in Tustin. read more

Went to this Vans store today to pick up some shoes for my son who is starting preschool. We were so excited and the staff matched our energy. ELIJAH was amazing! He was such a kind young man. He helped measure my sons feet and was extremely patient with a wild toddler trying to grab everything. He told us about a deal where my son ended up with a free t-shirt. And when my son wanted a beanie, in the middle of summer, I not once felt judged. Thank you Vans staff for being so kind! read more

I will never buy retail from the store again, I found out that they sell it to other venders at swapmeets for 1/2 price. I tried returning a brand new pair since I didn't have my receipt they offered $45 for a shoe that we purchased for $75 I was shocked when learned that you could buy the same shoe for a lot less form other vendors. read more

Wow their customer service is top notch I got some shoes that were too small a couple weeks ago asked for 8 1/2 and I received 8 they were hurting my feet didn't notice until couple weeks after. They went above and beyond they didn't have to it was my fault I should have checked. They actually fixed the problem got me another pair man these guys and girls are amazing. Thanks guys you have a customer for life all I'll be wearing is vans from here on I will contact customer service as well to express my gratitude I'm here in the lot writing this thanks. read more

I really like this store.... I could easily lose some money here, quickly! I stopped in to get a gift card.... and decided to try on some shirts (which ran a little small in my opinion).... and looked at the shoes. They didnt have a huge selection, but they definitely had a few pair I wouldnt have minded taking home with me :) The girl working was very friendly, as were the two guys... very helpful! read more

Went in with 3 kids (2 of them toddlers) and was not once approached by a sales associate for help. I watched the young man at the register help another woman, who came in after we did, instead of assisting us. I know the employees are going and lack the life experience of managing kids while trying to shop, but they should be trained to be more helpful and assist with the customer. My tween daughter loves Vans, and maybe it's just a phase that will pass, but I can guarantee I'll spend my money elsewhere (like Nordstrom) for my 2 younger kids where the customer is first and sales associates are trained and experienced. read more

I ordered Vans online but the size didn't feel right so I called the store to find the right size and exchange them. They found me the right size and they ordered them for me with no issues. Everyone who works there is super nice and helpful and I have complaints whatsoever. Will definitely be back to shop there soon! read more

Stopped by to grab a few pairs of shoes for my boyfriend and I since I haven't had a pair of vans in years. Not only was I not greeted but not helped at all. I stood looking at the shoes I wanted while one employee walked by without even acknowledging I'm alive. Another employee stood talking to her friends the whole time I was there. A mother walked in and was quickly greeted and helped. If I ever do get another pair of vans again it'll never be from this store. read more

I went into the store today to get a new pair of Van's. Francesca the manager helped me. I told her about a hole in one of my van's slip on's, she asked me how long I have them, I told her 3-4 months. She then showed me shoes that aren't prone to getting holes in them. I chose a nice pair of suede shoes. She enter the new shoes into the computer and told me I owed her $10 for the new shoes. She gave me full credit for the old shoes and just charged me the difference between the 2 shoes. I can't believe that their is still great customer service. I thought this was very generous on her part and also the Van's organization. I will be a customer for life. Totally made my day, thank you so much. I highly recommend shopping at the Tustin location. Very professional and caring staff. We'll done!!! read more

I came in to pick up a reserved pair of shoes. Decided to shop around for my own pair, but the staff absolutely ignored me! Wtf! Terrible customer service. read more

The last couple of pair of Vans I bought came apart within weeks, even though I'm not hard on my shoes. I asked 3 different employees what kind of warranty they offer before I bought another pair. Everyone said "there's no warranty"so I left. Next day I explored their website, and it said that all Vans products have a six month warranty on materials and workmanship. It's kind of perturbing that employees know very little about their employers policies, or is it that they just don't want to help? read more

Vans has amazing customer service, and Cindy from the tustin market place location went above and beyond to help me locate some hard to find shoes. She saved me so much time, as she helped me by calling other locations to find these shoes without me even asking! I was blown away by her kindness, as well as the rest of their staff. I will definitely be coming back! Best experience ever! read more

Horrible customer service. Came in for a quick pair. Felt like I was being a hassle for the employees, and there was only 1 other customer in the store. I ended up walking out in 2 min. read more

My 12 year old requested his first pair of vans. I was reluctant because he has flat feet and must wear insoles daily which makes it hard for him to find shoes. We walked in, insoles in hand. They measured his foot and showed us where to look. An associate walked by and saw he was holding his inserts and showed us the pro section that come with insoles that are almost exactly like the ones he has or they just slip right out easily for our own insoles. I was blown away they noticed our insoles-I wasn't going to bring it up, we're just used to bringing them along. They were so helpful and my son is so happy with his 1st pair and I know we're now a Vans family! read more

Helpful associates, good selection and inventory = happy kid. We ended up here because Active doesn't carry sizes for 11 y/o's. Is it my imagination or are Vans much more expensive than they used to be? Even the cheapy slip-ons that hang on the racks are $47. Maybe they're trying to keep up with the other brands? We shall see how long these last. read more

I visited this store today and found THE shoes but they didn't have the size I needed, regardless we got the best costumer service, the girls were so helpful, didn't stop until they found the right sizes in one of their other stores, she made so many phone calls, super chill like no problem and found them! read more

Came in for a curbside pickup and staff was really friendly. She stuck up a short conversation while waiting for the confirmation to go thru online and it made my day a little better. read more

I constantly shop at Vans but this time i happen to run into the Vans store at the Market place and I just wanted to shine some light on the four employees that were working there at the time that i went in. Matt, Jayce, Joey & Vanessa. They each individual helped me out with something, they were really helpful and kind, I didn't like one pair of shoes and they went back and got me a newer pair! Definitely will be coming back! :) read more

Everytime I have come in here I have had a fussy toddler with me who wasn't in the mood for some new shoes. With that said, the staff here has always been nothing but nice and helpful, whoever designed their customer service philosophy/standards did one heck of a good job. They are always helpful without being pushy and that is so appreciated! read more

Vans - Shoe Stores Near Me - Tustin, California

Very friendly & knowledgeable staff. Because of them we bought 2 pairs of shoes. Will be coming back on the 4th to use our $25 coupons.

I came in with my husband and kiddo looking for new slip ones for the hubs and left with that plus two pairs of lace ups for myself. Scott and Tracy are the best! Super chill environment but they were still very interactive in our experience. They even interacted with my little guy in a way I really appreciated. Most adults talk down to kids, especially under 10, but they both treated him like a friend, talking about Minecraft and whatnot. This store is my absolute favorite of the brand and I will def be spending more money here in the near future. Let's just put it this way- I normally buy everything online, but these guys are so good, I'll make sure to go out of my way to buy all my vans stuff in person from them! read more

We can e here today for a new backpack for my son, and left with new shirts, shorts, backpack, windbreaker and shoes. We were helped out by Simon, and he gave us impeccable customer service. He listened to my kids describe their tastes, and then pointed out to them things they loved. Most of the items were on sale even! The best part - my daughter received a replacement pair of white slip-ons after showing Simon the stain caused by the shoe cleaner we purchased previously. My daughter was stoked that she received an exchange for her slip-ons and I was happy Simon stood by his products! read more

This Vans store is fantastic. The store is clean and well-organized, they have a great selection of shoes for everyone, including our toddler. But the best thing is the associates who work at this store. We found them all to be professional, knowledgeable, eager to assist, and they provide a very welcoming atmosphere to their customers. Shout out to Jeffrey, who greeted us immediately when we walked in, helped us measure our squirmy toddler's feet and get her hooked up with some great shoes. While our little was test running a pair of slip-ons (which everyone at the store was really gracious about), I overheard a teen express interest in a pair of platform sneakers. The teen's Mom didn't seem happy about the particular shoe selection and snarked that she thought those shoes were for girls. I cringed for a moment but then heard a store associate respectfully interject into their conversation that all Vans shoes are unisex. YES! I was so impressed with how the associate acted as an ally and created a welcoming and inclusive environment for all. Will definitely be back! read more

I haven't owned a pair of Vans shoes since I was in middle school (back when the black suede ones were the cool). Twenty years later I find myself in Vans because it was time... To get my feet into some Hello Kitty Vans! I walked in, feeling intimidated. I'm not a skateboarder or a kid or a teenager. I am a kid at heart, though. The first thing I noticed on this steamy Saturday was the airconditioning must've been on full blast. Extra stars for that! The sales associate was helpful, although I thought she might've gone to China to look for my size. She was gone for a long time. Plus, I was the only customer in the store. She finally came back (what? no souvenirs?) empty handed. I was disappointed, but figured there are other locations I could hit up. Still, I think the store is a pretty good size, service was great (they greeted me as soon as I set foot in the door) and the selection is vast. read more

Went in for a quick purchase of shoes and I was immediately greeted by an employee. They offered help asap and weren't hesitant to help with finding sizes for my siblings and I. Rang us up real quick and both guys working that day were friendly and very kind to all 3 of us shopping. Awesome customer service and even when working on a holiday (Halloween). Loved it! Totally plan on shopping more there! :-) read more

Came to look for some longboards with my son, ended up buying some new Nintendo hi tops, all the ladies there are so nice and helpful, we've been to the vans at spectrum before and it was a total different experience, anyway we will come back to this location in the future for sure. read more

five stars for the shoes [more specifically the classic slip-ons] however, i'm deducting one star for the service.. this place is pretty small and even with two employees working, it takes forever to try a pair on and then get through the line at the register. it might just be like that on the weekends though. + comfortable, stylish, inexpensive shoes + convenient location - need more workers on the weekend read more
