FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for infants who are just starting to walk?
Yes, the reinforced toe caps, padded ankle collars for support, and rubber waffle sole for grip make these shoes well-suited for infants learning to crawl, stand, and take their first steps.
Can the insoles be removed for cleaning or to insert custom orthotics?
No, the insoles in these Vans Old Skool V infant shoes are not designed to be removed.
How do I determine the correct size for my infant?
It's best to measure your infant's foot length and compare it to the Vans size chart, often available on the product page or manufacturer's website. For UK Size 4, ensure there's about a thumb's width of space between the longest toe and the end of the shoe.
What materials are used in these shoes?
The uppers are a combination of suede and canvas. They feature a textile lining and a durable rubber waffle sole.
Are these shoes machine washable?
No, these shoes are not machine washable. Please refer to the 'Care' section for recommended cleaning instructions, especially for the suede components.
Do these shoes come in other colors or patterns?
This specific variant features a pink floral design. Other Vans Old Skool V infant shoes may be available in different colors or patterns. Please check other product listings for variety.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose
Ensure the double riptape straps are adjusted correctly. They should be snug enough to keep the shoe on but not so tight that they leave marks or restrict movement. Check if the infant's toes have wiggle room.
Suede areas look dirty or scuffed
Use a soft suede brush or a clean, dry cloth to gently brush away dry dirt. For scuffs, a suede eraser can be effective. Avoid water or harsh cleaners, which can damage suede.
Shoes are difficult to put on infant's foot
Fully open both riptape straps before attempting to put the shoe on. Ensure the infant's foot is relaxed and guide it in gently. Sometimes a thin sock can help reduce friction.
Infant's feet seem uncomfortable or sweaty
Ensure socks are made of breathable material. The textile lining provides some breathability, but monitoring for proper fit and avoiding overheating is important. If discomfort persists, check if the shoes are too small.
