Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Vans Authentic 44 Trainers stay in top condition, follow these guidelines:
Setup and Fit:
These trainers fit true to size for most adults. Ensure the laces are tightened firmly across the eyelets to lock the heel in place, preventing slippage during movement.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dried dirt from the canvas. For tougher stains, use a mild soap mixed with water and gently scrub with a cloth.
- Drying: Always air dry your shoes at room temperature. Never place them in a tumble dryer or on a direct heat source, as high heat can damage the rubber bonding agents.
- Protection: Consider applying a canvas-safe water repellent spray before your first wear to protect against light dust and minor moisture.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the blue colourway from fading.
