FAQs
What age group are these trainers for?
These trainers are specifically designed for toddlers, typically ranging from approximately 1 to 4 years old, depending on the specific UK size purchased.
How do I ensure I get the right size?
It is recommended to measure your toddler's foot from heel to toe and compare it with the sizing chart provided by Vans. For toddlers, it's often advised to add a small amount of growing room.
Are these trainers suitable for wide feet?
The Old Skool V silhouette generally offers a standard fit. The adjustable touch-and-close straps allow for some flexibility, but if your toddler has significantly wide feet, it's advisable to try them on if possible.
Can these trainers be washed in a washing machine?
No, these trainers should not be machine washed as this can damage the leather, sole, and adhesive. Hand-cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap is the recommended method.
What does 'Old Skool V' mean?
'Old Skool' refers to the classic Vans skate shoe design, and 'V' typically denotes the presence of Velcro or touch-and-close straps for easy fastening, replacing traditional laces.
How durable is the floral pattern?
The floral pattern is integrated into the material during manufacturing, offering good durability for everyday wear. However, excessive abrasion or harsh cleaning methods could potentially affect its appearance over time.
Is the leather waterproof?
The leather is water-resistant to a degree, but not fully waterproof. For prolonged exposure to wet conditions, it is recommended to use a protective spray designed for leather footwear.
Troubleshooting
Strap not sticking securely
Ensure the touch-and-close fastening area is free from dirt, dust, or debris. Clean both the hook and loop sides gently with a small brush or cloth.
Leather appears scuffed or dull
Use a damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt. For minor scuffs, a dedicated leather conditioner or balm can help restore shine. Test any cleaning product on an inconspicuous area first.
Soles are difficult to clean
Try using a soft brush with mild soap and water. For stubborn marks, a magic eraser or a specialized sole cleaner can be effective. Avoid soaking the shoes.
