FAQs
What age group are these trainers best suited for?
These trainers are designed for kids, specifically toddlers, with the size 2 indicating suitability for younger children. The design features are geared towards their active needs and developing style.
How do I clean the suede material?
Use a suede brush for regular cleaning of dust and light dirt. For stains, a specialized suede cleaner is recommended. Avoid washing them in a machine or using excessive water.
Are these trainers waterproof?
No, the suede material is not inherently waterproof. While they can handle light splashes, prolonged exposure to water is not recommended and may damage the material.
What is the main difference between Knu Skool and Old Skool?
The Knu Skool is a modern interpretation of the Old Skool, distinguished by its dramatically puffed-up tongue and ankle collar, and a bolder, 3D-moulded Sidestripe, giving it a more substantial, chunky profile.
How can I ensure I am buying the correct size?
It is recommended to measure your child's foot and compare it with the Vans sizing chart. Pay attention to the UK sizing mentioned (size 2).
Can these trainers be worn in wet weather?
While they can handle light moisture, it is best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions as the suede material can be damaged and may stain.
Troubleshooting
Shoes appear too tight or loose
Adjust the lacing system. For tightness, loosen the laces; for looseness, tighten them. Ensure the correct size is being worn, referring to sizing charts if necessary.
Suede material looks dull or dirty
Use a dry suede brush to gently remove loose dirt. For tougher stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner, testing on an inconspicuous area first.
Laces are difficult to tie securely
Ensure the laces are properly threaded and that they are of sufficient length. If laces are worn, consider replacing them with new, standard-length laces.
Outsole shows signs of wear
Regularly check the waffle pattern for debris that might affect grip. While some wear is normal, excessive wear may indicate a need for replacement.
