First time visiting this store to make a purchase for my child, and despite how busy it was, the experience was excellent. My daughter's first interaction was with Uriel, who was juggling several boxes of shoes at the time, yet he still took a moment to offer his help with a great attitude. Uriel was professional, patient, and made my daughter feel comfortable asking for exactly what she wanted. He also provided helpful insight with shoe recommendations and honest feedback, which we truly appreciated. Thank you, Uriel, for making the experience fun and easy. Great service and genuine kindness all around. read more

Who needs panda dunks when you can get some comfortable classic vans. The classics now come with an upgraded insert! Thanks Damian! Damian provided exceptional customer service. Personable and very knowledgeable of the van shoes collection. Ended up walking away with some comfortable black and white classics. Loving the newer, sport insert that comes with these. Probably the best customer service I've received in a store in years. stay classic read more

Foggy, the store Manager! made a purchase up for a shoe at a different location. Called up a nearby store , Foggy answered. I told her my situation with a pair of shoes that dug into my heels, and I bled on the shoes. She was so kind and so patient and told me to bring them in, assess the shoe and saw that I really wasn't kidding and they made my heels bleed. She set them aside helped me find another pair that was more fitting with my foot size. Handed me an alcohol wipe a Band-Aid and opened up a new pair of socks that I could wear. She completed the exchange hassle, free with a very welcoming and warm embrace with my situation, and the reason that it stuck out to me so much was that I was expected to be turned away, having lost money on these pair of shoes as well as the pain that the pair of shoes has caused me. She fully understood the situation helped make an even exchange, and I was on my way in my new pair of shoes that were much more comfortable. Thank you Foggy, you made my day. Come to the store if you'd like to purchase a pair of vans, she deserves the most! read more

I have shopped this store twice. First time I felt like I was bothering them. I was looking for a kids size in the kid area only to be told I was looking in the wrong place. Was made to feel a little stupid. Got what I needed fast but paid a lot for a boys pair of shoes I thought. Second time I really needed these shoes so I had to go to that store. I went to the section I was told last time only to be told I was again looking in the wrong section. Again both girls were rude . The one who checked me out was on her phone. I wanted to get the 5$ off that was on my phone . She said I needed to set it up online. I have an autistic son, couldn't take time to set it up, so I asked if they could just honor the discount that I showed was on my phone and she said very bluntly no. I'm so not happy with how we were treated ! Next time we are going to Tillie's. read more

Vans are the best shoes, PERIOD, finito, end of story. Just got some customs online with a big pic of my daughters cute face on them and custom black and red components and they are the coolest shoes ever.. only $100, $75 after my coupon! Come on, that's just awesome. And the print is perfect. I got some about a decade ago of my dogs and they still look great. The slip ons are already my favorite shoe but then with the customization, they are the greatest shoes of all time.. GO VANS!!!! P.S. I emailed them asking to get the shoes for my daughters birthday party and they rushed it out and got them to me in time... cherry on top.. company is totally radical :) read more

I can't say enough good things about this particular vans store and their incredible team. From the moment I stepped into their doors, I was greeted with warmth and enthusiasm..

I'm sure I won't spell her name right but, Tami was amazing! In fact, every employee I had an interaction with was friendly, helpful, and professional. My adult son is on the autism spectrum and is very particular about his shoes. His favorite shoes were recently discontinued (Stefan Janowski Nike skate shoe) so, finding a replacement has been challenging. I probably would have given only 4 stars because the shoe he actually wanted, was at the bottom of a large shipment that had just come in. I can't fault them for that though because considering the professionalism, cleanliness of the store, and overall great energy, they just rock! read more

I love this vans! Lizzy is super helpful and so nice! I also really like the manager there she is super nice also! This store has a lot of options and inventory, and if they don't have your size they are willing to order for you online, and ship to your house! The store is super big and clean. read more

I went in for a sweatshirt and even though I didn't end up buying anything I was given the best service by two sweet ladies, one named Sammy (she deserves a raise due to her amazing attitude and customer service). I came into the store right before closing and was not given any flak about it which was very kind of the employees, they ensured me that I was welcome even when I realized it was close to closing hours. Store was fully stocked, well lit, clean. Totally recommend :) read more

Ethan was amazing provided me the best service and I loved his recommendations. Very knowledgeable and professional. He walked me through all the different models and made sure the sizing was just right. I really appreciate his service and will be coming back to buy more. Thank you Ethan!!!! read more

So it's after Christmas. I go to return teenaged son's unwanted gifts. Everything tags and prices in tact. Rude employee demands a receipt. I flashback to 1991. Before debit cards & computers and bar codes linked. Redhead with fury runs away to back office. Other gent proceeds to return over $100 to my Chase debit card. I asked. "So how'd that happen?" Perplexed Van's regular shopper read more

This location is one of my favorites that I have ever shopped at! They definitely know the true meaning of providing excellent customer service!! They are always willing to go above and beyond to make sure you are well taken of and happy!! Stefan L. is an amazing person! He is a true blessing for Vans to have him representing them!! I would highly recommended everyone to come shop here for there shoe needs!! I would definitely be back in the near future to shop for more!! read more

Excellent customer service at the HB store They warranted a damaged shoe. Very impressed. Been wearing VANS shoes a long time Very durable read more

I went to Vans at 5 points (off Main street) to buy a pair of "Old School" shoes. A wonderful employee - Ms. Diamond - helped me. She was very professional and courteous in her manner. I detest shopping but her upbeat attitude and friendliness made this shopping endeavor enjoyable. Her outward cheerfulness and willingness to call another store for the pair of shoes I needed was very refreshing. I did get the shoes at the Vans, where Ms. diamond called, off Center Street. She did all she could to help me and I deeply appreciated it. If nothing else, Ms. Diamond should be commended on her attentiveness to customers needs. Please make sure she gets appropriate accolades for the behavior she merited. Sincerely, Lars Jensen read more

Walked in to return something and no one came for 10 minutes while I was just standing at the register and they clearly saw me 15 feet away since it's a small store. An extra star because they did their job once they realized I was there. read more

Rosie (or Rosey - not sure how it's spelled!!) is absolutely amazing!! I took my son into buy some back to school shoes and she was so helpful and brought so many options out based off of what she thought he would like. she took so much time and care to help us. as we were paying she unexpectedly paid for his shoes and socks! I was shocked by her kindness! she brightened up my day as long as my son! cannot thank her enough for her care and kindness! read more

Had an issue with shoes ordered online that Stephan and James sorted for me ASAP, then Matt was super helpful with getting us sorted with some new ones. Shout out to y'all at the store! If you're looking to snag some vans come to this spot read more

I am very disappointed in this Vans Store. I purchased a sweatshirt online and received a email stating it was canceled. I ask the gentleman (Stanford) that the email was confusing. I had to ask him to look my order up. He said that it was canceled. The other email said I had 2 days to pick it up. I ask him if he check with other stores to see if anyone else had one. He said no but you can call and see if they have one. Great customer service skills. It's Christmas and in a pandemic. I don't understand how people think. I would have called other surrounding store and call the customer and ask if it was okay to pick up in another store. I have worked my whole life in customer service. It's very sad that employee r so rude. These people need some training in customer service. I was never going to go to a Van Store again. I called another Store In Westminster and she was very polite and courteous, Her name was Brennan and I am picking the item up from her store. I won't ever go into Huntington Beach Store on Five Points for anything. I use to always go there because it has easy access. I will never shop there again. Every person should have to go thru customer service training that they have at Chick-fil-A. They alway have great customer service skills. That's why they r always crazy busy!! read more

Let me exchange my shoes 2 different times no problem. Amazing staff. Highly recommend this Vans. Employees care about there customers which is hard to find now a days. Come here for well customer care. read more

So this store only sells Vans and Vans clothing. Go figure since it is called the Vans Store. It doesn't really take a smart person to put two and two together to figure that out. Really, the Vans store sells Vans. Hard, right? So I pretty much cried a river when I found out the price of slipons. I remember the days of Vans pushing the $35 mark and now they are $50 plus at the Vans store. Either I am really old now or not making enough. Either way, it's a lot easier to get Vans on the Internet for a better price or at another store like Shoe Locker a few miles away. So chose your poison and get your wallet ready! Where the Vans store shines is the selection of Vans. The only other place I've seen so many choices for Vans in a store is in New York. And well, New York is New York so no complaints there. The service was good and the store was clean. So if you want to gawk at expensive Vans, head on over. "You can't hate on these / these diamond studded Vans cost 18Gs" And for the YAY AREA folks, the Wolfpack won't be shopping here anytime soon. No diamond studded Vans. :-( read more

The Vans store at the Five Points Shopping Plaza. From the name you should be able to tell that it sells Vans shoes and apparel. The store is small to medium sized but packed with items. Do not expect amazing service here. You have to have guessed already a bunch of skaters and surfer work here. Despite that, I got great service. The merchandise is good with good selection. read more

I came in for a pair of shoes but the ones I want were out. So the friendly sales associate offer to call another location and have them ready for pickup saving me time. I will definitely be shopping here again and strongly recommend this store! read more

We live in HB and this is our Fav vans store. I Will never go anywhere else. Have brought my son in numerous times for shoes and the guys are always so nice and extremely helpful and always measure his foot first to see which size he's in bc he's growing so fast. Last week we went in w/o him and a super cool dude helped us (Nick) with which skateboard he should have for his age/height. He had been using an old one that was really small. So today we took him and he got his first real board! I love how helpful and friendly the associates are here, regardless if I'm shopping for myself or a first grader. read more

Absolutely unbelievable! Walked in here to buy my son his second pair of vans slip on's and the only option they have, black and gray is completely sold out, no wonder it's the only fun option. Corporate decided to take away all the fund kids colors an kids checkered options and only offer you black and gray. I grew up with vans my son has been talking about them since I bought him his first pair last year, I felt bad for him as he was crying as we were walking out.. how do you explain to a three-year-old the corporate rid of that decision. And here in surf city really?! Wyf! I'm sorry to vent but kinda pissed. JohnnyB read more

Came in looking for some black shoes for work and Sarah helped me out with the kindest and best service I've ever received from a fashion retailer. She was quick and even brought me more options for shoes. I ended up choosing one she brought me, I simply didn't know they existed! Great experience, would have definitely went with more of her great recommendations if I was able to. Best vans store in the area for sure! read more

RACISM AT THE VANS STORE Yesterday (11 of april 2011) i went to the Vans store located at the 5 points plaza in HUNTINGTON BEACH and right when the blond seller saw me speaking portuguese (I am from Brazil) she changed completely. I asked her a bigger size of a tennis shoe and she said "ok, I'll get it". AND DIDN'T. She kept talking to her bitch girlfriend and went to another customer . AFTER 10 minutes standing next to her and waiting for the shoe, I asked again and she became a smart ass and asked me "Oooohh, so are going to get anything?" I say "YES, I am still waiting for the shoe." After another few minutes, she IGNORED ME AGAIN and didn't go get it. All she did was playing a smart ass to impress her co-worker friends and had the courage to ask me in a fast way, with the intention of me to do not understand and play the silly, If I would buy anything from the store. I said "excuse me?" and she replied "Nothing", and left with a stupid smile on her face. I say YES and when I finally called my husband to complain about the embarracement I was putting through, she finally got me the God Dammit shoe. There was 2 ladies working there. The blond treated me with a difference thinking i was not going to buy anything, probably because I was a foreigner. The brunnete was telling a mexican boy that probably works on the store for cleaning " I am going to make you scrub the toilet with your tooth brush". I am sure she was "joking", but I don't think this is an appropriated joke to make in front of the clients, this is public humiliation and If I was him, I would do something about it. Who the fuck this 2 sellers think they are? PS: I don't care if they try to say something different about what happened. I was in the company of 2 more people and they saw everything. read more

Came to this location with my husband to buy him a pair of SK8 Hi Vans as well as another similar pair as a gift for a young man. The staff was friendly and attentive and we were helped in particular by Shane S, who not only laced the shoes for us prior to them being tried on but recommended the Pro Style SK8 Hi Vans that look basically the same but have a very cushiony insole and are more sturdy on the outside - for a difference of only $5. We purchased both pairs of shoes in the Pro Style and couldn't be happier - they are much more comfortable than the standard style. Many thanks to Shane for providing excellent and friendly customer service and for taking the time to make a great recommendation! read more

Great selection and the most helpful and friendly staff. My favorite shoe store in all of Southern California.

Amazing staff! Amazing deals going on right now. They do everything you need to help you find what you are looking for. I haven't had a shopping experience like that in a while overall great store and great people. :) read more

Why did I take my Daughter during Spring Break? The store was packed!! There were people and shoe boxes everywhere. Despite that, the employees had smiles on their faces, worked well together to get the shoes out, keep customers happy, and the register ringing. I was told about the clearance sales, while waiting for my shoes to be brought out from the back. Good idea, it distracted and entertained me. In a store packed with people, I was treated like a special customer. Kudos to the staff. Why the 4 star review? Well, I didn't get the friends and family discount that was being featured though the 2 people in front of me did. I was told to mention it, I did, and I didn't get it. That made me sad, but oh well, I look good in my new shoes either way, lol. read more

I have been wearing Vans at least 50 of my 54 years of existence ,, I went to the store on chapman/ Euclid and the other store out in the middle of Bean fields on harbor and MacArther my younger years.

I took them in and NO problem at all to get new ones the manager was great, she did I all with a smile. Over the years I have easily bought close to 600 pairs and will keep on buying till I die read more

Went to Vans to pick up some shoes for my nephew who was in my wedding, called to verify that they had the shoes before I drove down there and the lady on the phone said they did. When I got to Vans there were 3 sales people working... no one offered to help for the first couple min. so I asked about the pair on hold, etc & they were the wrong shoes.. no biggie- I got him a diff pair.... I then was looking for myself and found the perfect pair of vans to wear during my ceremony of my wedding.. purple sequence. When I finally got the girls attention she brought me a pair, tried one on and purchased the two pairs. Samantha was the girl that ended up helping me. On my wedding day... the shoes for my nephew didnt fit so no bueno there but not anyones fault at Vans... My shoes on the otherhand just about ruined my day... they gave me two RIGHT FEET and to top it off they were different sizes! So two of my friends (bless there hearts) missed my wedding ceremony and went to a diff vans store to pick me up the shoes that were the same size and a right and left. When I went back into vans in HB last week to return the shoes that we were unable to wear, the cashier didnt apologize.. just said "if it makes you feel better she doesnt work here anymore"... Seriously, that's how you deal with it?!?! Def. wont be back to this vans store! read more

Great selection, at least 100 different styles on the wall to choose from! They had just had a sale so some of their sizes were out of stock, but since I had so many to choose from it was easy to find something in my size that I liked. The clothes are good to, and the people were helpful, bringing me out about 6 pairs of shoes of slightly different sizes! read more
