Product Information

Full details

The Vans Premium Old Skool 36 is designed for adults seeking a refined take on the brand's iconic skate silhouette, offering a blend of heritage aesthetics and modern comfort for daily wear. While these trainers excel in casual versatility and style, users should note that the unique wool material requires more careful handling than standard canvas sneakers to maintain its premium finish.

FAQs

Are these shoes machine washable?

No. Machine washing can ruin the wool upper and damage the structural integrity of the rubber sole. Use manual cleaning methods only.

Do these shoes run large or small?

The Vans Old Skool 36 generally fits true to size, but the wool material may feel firmer than canvas when brand new.

Can I wear these for skateboarding?

While based on a skate heritage model, the premium wool material is not designed to withstand the high friction of griptape like traditional suede or canvas.

How do I remove mud from the wool?

Let the mud dry completely first, then use a dry brush to flick it off. Do not wet the mud, as it will push the dirt deeper into the wool fibers.

What is the primary difference between these and standard Old Skools?

The 36 series features a more specific 'Style 36' profile with a shorter toe cap and sharper edge detailing for a more authentic vintage look.

Troubleshooting

Wool upper looks slightly dusty or dull

Gently use a soft-bristle garment brush in the direction of the fabric grain to lift dust and revive the finish.

Creasing at the toe box

This is a natural result of walking in a premium wool trainer. Use a shoe tree when not wearing them to help maintain the structure.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your trainers last, avoid submerging them in water or using harsh laundry machines. Because of the wool construction, use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface dust and dirt. If you encounter a spill, use a damp cloth with mild soap and blot the area rather than rubbing, which can damage the fabric weave. These shoes pair naturally with slim-cut jeans, chinos, or casual joggers, making them a cornerstone of any everyday wardrobe. Ensure you check your sizing (UK 9) against your other footwear, as Vans generally fit true to size but may feel slightly snug initially until the wool softens.
