Is it just me, or are vans kinda uncomfortable when walking for too long? Sometimes I feel like my dunks are way easier on the feet...

authos are alright, if i'm walking around on concrete for like 5 hours then it starts to hurt... when i go into london or somewhere where i'm gonna walk alot i bring a fresh pair of shoes like dunks, tennis classics etc.

authentics are like second skin for me. i find chukkas are uncomfortable though, they tend to rub behind my ankle quite a lot, same with skate hi's if the inner is leather

Half Cabs = Awesome
Authentics = Blister at first then when you break 'em in they are good
Chukka = Too big so they gave me two monster blisters

Vans are overall comfy, I don't walk I bike, so maybe my opinion is useless

I wouldn't so as far as saying Authentics are comfortable, but I they sure don't hurt my feet when walking for long periods of time...

Vans have next to no cushioning compared to Nike, New Balance, etc, so they're bound to be a bit uncomfortable in comparison.

I think the most comfortable shoes have to be Supras. I know vans are sick, but if you know you gotta walk a long way I'm afraid you gotta put on a sick (but Comfortable) shoe. Ya know?

My Dunks are by far the most comfortable shoe I own.
My chukkas (the ''tanned'' leather ones) formed to my foot because I went down half a size and they fit like socks.
On a side note, my friend really loves his half cabs and eras.
