FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, the suede material is not waterproof and should be kept away from heavy rain or standing water to prevent permanent damage.
Can I put my Vans in the washing machine?
It is strongly recommended not to machine wash suede Vans, as it can ruin the material texture and weaken the adhesives.
How should I clean the suede?
Use a specialized suede brush or a dry, clean sponge to gently wipe away surface dust and dirt.
Are these true to size?
Vans Sk8-Hi trainers generally fit true to size for most adults, though if you prefer a thicker sock, you may consider your standard athletic shoe sizing.
Do these shoes provide good arch support?
The Sk8-Hi provides standard casual support; if you require significant orthotic arch support, you may wish to add your own aftermarket insoles.
Troubleshooting
Visible scuffs on the suede surface
Use a suede-specific brush to gently lift the nap and remove loose debris or scuff marks.
Laces becoming undone frequently
Ensure you are using a double knot or replace the laces with a slightly more textured set if the standard ones slip.
Foot discomfort during break-in period
Wear the trainers for short periods around the house with thicker socks to help the material conform to your foot shape naturally.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To get the most out of your Sk8-Hi trainers, ensure you have selected the correct UK size for a snug but comfortable fit. When first lacing them, adjust the tension to balance ankle support with ease of movement. For maintenance, never submerge suede shoes in water. Instead, use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface dirt after each use. If the material encounters a stain, utilize a dedicated suede eraser or a professional-grade suede cleaner. Storing them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight will prevent the green color from fading over time.
