FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
No, machine washing can damage the materials and the adhesive. It is recommended to hand-clean them.
Do these Vans run true to size?
Yes, they generally run true to standard UK adult sizes, but personal fit can vary based on foot width.
Can I use these for professional skateboarding?
Yes, the Old Skool series is designed for skateboarding durability, including the signature side stripe for reinforcement.
How do I protect the suede parts from water?
Apply a suede-safe water and stain repellent spray before first use to create a protective barrier.
What is the primary material used?
They feature a mix of durable canvas and suede for a balance of flexibility and strength.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel tight initially
Wear them with thinner socks for the first few days to allow the canvas to stretch and conform to your foot.
Visible scuffs on white sections
Use a specialized rubber eraser for footwear or a soft cloth with a tiny amount of water and mild detergent.
Pros and Cons
Pros

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These shoes are ready to wear out of the box, though a brief break-in period is recommended to allow the materials to mold to your foot shape. For compatibility, the standard fit accommodates most foot widths, but you should verify your UK 6.5 sizing against Vans' specific size charts. To care for your trainers, gently wipe away surface dirt with a soft brush, and for stubborn stains, use a mild soap solution specifically formulated for suede and canvas. Avoid machine washing, as this can degrade the glue bonds and material integrity.
