FAQs

Are these shoes machine washable?

No, it is not recommended to machine wash the wool-based Old Skool 36 trainers as this can damage the material and construction.

What is Sola Foam ADC?

Sola Foam ADC is a specialized cushioning foam used by Vans to provide improved comfort and impact protection compared to standard insoles.

Can I wear these in the rain?

Because of the wool upper, these are best suited for dry weather. Excess moisture can potentially lead to fiber damage or shrinkage.

How do these differ from regular Old Skool trainers?

The Old Skool 36 is based on the vintage Style 36 design, featuring a shorter toe cap, sharper edges, and upgraded internal comfort materials.

Do these shoes require a breaking-in period?

Like most high-quality trainers, they may feel slightly firm at first. The padding will naturally contour to your feet after a few wears.

Troubleshooting

Visible dust or lint on the wool upper

Use a soft garment brush or a lint roller to gently lift particles from the fabric fibers.

Minor scuffs on the rubber sole

Use a white pencil eraser or a melamine foam sponge with a small amount of water to buff away scuff marks.

Initial stiffness in the padded collar

Gently massage the padded collar area with your hands to loosen the foam and soften the fabric before your first wear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Vans Old Skool 36 trainers remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:

Fitting: Ensure you select the correct size as these trainers fit true to standard adult sizing.
Cleaning: Given the wool material, avoid submerging the shoes in water. Use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dust, and use a damp cloth with mild detergent for spot cleaning.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the wool fibers from fading or losing their shape.
Protection: Consider using a fabric-safe water-repellent spray specifically formulated for wool to help resist minor stains.
