Yes, the Vans Old Skool V Toddler Trainers feature flexible rubber waffle soles that provide good support and grip, which can be beneficial for new walkers as they develop balance and coordination.
The upper is primarily made from suede, with other parts potentially using canvas and synthetic materials, and the sole is made of Vans' signature rubber waffle.
It's best to measure your toddler's foot and compare it to a Vans size chart. Remember to leave a little room for growth, but not so much that the shoe slips off. Toddlers' feet can grow quickly, so regular measurement is recommended.
No, due to the suede material and construction, these trainers should not be machine washed. Machine washing can damage the suede and adhesives. Always follow the care instructions provided in the guide.
No, these trainers are not waterproof. Suede is sensitive to water and can be damaged if exposed to excessive moisture. It's recommended to avoid wearing them in wet conditions and to apply a protective spray if desired.
After cleaning and drying, use a dedicated suede brush to gently brush the nap of the suede in one direction. This helps to lift and restore the texture of the material.
Adjust the rip-tape fastenings. Ensure they are snug but not constricting. If the issue persists, verify the shoe size against your child's current foot measurement; toddlers' feet grow quickly.
Regularly brush the suede with a dedicated suede brush to remove loose dirt. For stains, use a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner following the product's instructions. Avoid harsh scrubbing which can damage the nap.
Clean the hook-and-loop sections. Over time, lint, hair, and dirt can get embedded, reducing stickiness. Use a stiff brush or a fine-toothed comb to remove debris from both sides of the fasteners.
Ensure the shoes are comfortable and not too tight. Check that socks aren't bunching up. Make sure the rip-tape is securely fastened, but not so tight it causes discomfort. Sometimes toddlers simply want their shoes off, so gentle redirection may be needed.
There is no complex setup required for these trainers. Simply unfasten the rip-tape straps, slide your toddler's foot in, and secure the straps for a comfortable, snug fit. Ensure there's a small amount of wiggle room for toes, but not so much that the foot slides around.
Maintaining the suede on your Vans Old Skool V trainers is key to their longevity and appearance:
