FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard sizing. We recommend checking the provided sizing chart against your usual UK shoe size to ensure the best fit.
Can I put my Vans in the washing machine?
It is not recommended. Machine washing can compromise the glue and the material quality. Spot cleaning is the preferred method.
Are these suitable for skateboarding?
While based on a classic skate design, they are primarily marketed for casual, everyday wear. For intense technical skating, professional-grade skate versions are recommended.
How do I protect the beige fabric from stains?
Using a high-quality protective spray specifically formulated for suede and fabric before the first wear is the most effective way to prevent staining.
Is the unisex fit suitable for everyone?
The unisex design is created to fit both men and women; ensure you convert the sizes correctly if you are choosing based on a specific gender's sizing standard.
Does the suede material change colour when wet?
Suede is a natural material and can darken when exposed to water. Always allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources.
Troubleshooting
The beige suede looks dull or dusty.
Gently use a suede brush in a circular motion to lift the nap and remove accumulated dust.
Sole edges have collected dirt.
Wipe the rubber sidewalls with a damp cloth and a mild soap solution to restore the clean aesthetic.
The fit feels slightly tight initially.
Wear the shoes with light socks for short periods indoors to allow the material to naturally stretch and contour to your foot.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Vans remain in top condition, focus on consistent upkeep. When you first receive your pair, it is recommended to apply a water and stain repellent spray suitable for suede and canvas to create a protective barrier. For daily care, use a soft-bristled brush to remove dust or light debris after use. If the trainers encounter mud or heavy stains, use a dedicated sneaker cleaner applied with a damp cloth—avoid machine washing, as this can damage the structural integrity and the glue bonds of the sole. When choosing your size, refer to the provided manufacturer sizing guide to ensure an accurate fit for your specific foot measurements.
