FAQs
What material are the Vans OG SK8-HI LX made of?
These sneakers feature an upper made from a combination of suede and fabric.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
The fit can vary, but the lace-up closure allows for some adjustment. For wider feet, it's often recommended to try them on in person if possible.
How do I clean the black suede?
Use a specialized suede brush to remove dry dirt. For stains, a suede cleaner applied sparingly with a cloth, followed by brushing, is recommended. Avoid soaking the suede.
What is the outsole made of?
The outsole is made of rubber, providing traction and durability.
Can I wear these in wet weather?
While the rubber outsole offers some protection, the suede and fabric upper are not waterproof and can be damaged by excessive moisture. It's best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain.
What does 'OG' stand for in the product name?
'OG' typically refers to 'Original', indicating that this model is a reissue or closely resembles the original design of the Sk8-Hi.
What is the primary use case for these sneakers?
These sneakers are designed for casual wear, lifestyle, and everyday use, offering a blend of style and comfort.
Troubleshooting
Squeaking sound when walking
This can sometimes occur due to friction between the sole and the insole. Try placing a powder (like talcum powder) under the insole, or check for any loose parts of the sole.
Laces fraying quickly
Ensure laces are not being tied too tightly or rubbing excessively against abrasive surfaces. Consider replacing with sturdier, wax-coated laces if frequent issues arise.
Discomfort after initial wear
The shoes may need a break-in period. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time as they conform to your feet.
