FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for skating?

While based on skate heritage, the premium wool construction is primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear.

Can I wash these in the washing machine?

No, machine washing can shrink or damage the wool material. Always use hand-cleaning methods.

How do I ensure I get the right size?

The Vans Old Skool 36 fits true to standard UK adult sizes; if you are between sizes, consider your preference for a snug or slightly roomier fit.

What should I do if the wool gets wet?

Let them air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can cause the wool or rubber to warp.

Does the blue checkered pattern fade easily?

Like any dyed textile, avoid prolonged exposure to direct, intense sunlight to keep the color vibrant for longer.

Troubleshooting

Material showing signs of pilling

Gently use a fabric shaver or a sweater stone to remove surface lint without pulling at the wool fibers.

Sole losing traction due to debris

Use a stiff-bristled brush to clear dirt and gravel from the grooves of the rubber sole.

Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These trainers fit true to size for most adult users. Since the upper is made of premium wool, it is important to avoid machine washing, which can damage the fibers and alter the shoe's shape. Instead, spot clean with a soft brush and a gentle, wool-safe cleaning solution. Avoid exposing the shoes to excessive moisture or mud to maintain the integrity of the textile. Store in a cool, dry place when not in use, and consider using cedar shoe trees if you wish to maintain their shape during extended storage periods.
