FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard sizing; however, since they are leather, they may feel slightly snug initially before stretching slightly to accommodate your foot.
Can I wash these in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the leather and the adhesives used in the sole. Always clean by hand.
Is the leather genuine?
These trainers feature leather construction, providing the durability and structural support associated with natural leather footwear.
What is the best way to keep the beige sections clean?
Use a specialized leather cleaner and a soft-bristled brush to gently remove stains without saturating the material.
Do these shoes offer arch support?
They provide standard support for casual wear; if you require high-level arch support, you may consider adding aftermarket insoles.
Troubleshooting
The leather upper is showing scuffs
Use a matching-tone leather wax or conditioner to buff out light scuffs and restore the shoe's finish.
The fit feels too tight
Ensure the laces are fully loosened during the initial break-in period to allow the leather to naturally mold to your foot shape.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To get the most out of your Vans Old Skool trainers, ensure you lace them snugly to take full advantage of the internal support structure. Since these are leather shoes, avoid submerging them in water or using harsh detergents.
Care Instructions:
- Remove surface dirt with a soft brush or dry cloth after each use.
- Use a dedicated leather cleaner for deeper stains, applying it sparingly with a soft cloth.
- Avoid leaving the shoes in direct sunlight for extended periods to prevent leather cracking or color fading.
- If the shoes become damp, stuff them with paper and allow them to air dry slowly away from direct heat sources like radiators.
