FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for professional use?
These trainers are primarily designed for casual wear and may not meet the safety requirements for industrial or professional environments.
How do I ensure I have the right size?
The Vans Old Skool trainers follow standard UK adult sizing. It is recommended to measure your feet in the afternoon when they are at their largest for the most accurate fit.
Can I use these for long-distance running?
No, these are casual lifestyle trainers and do not provide the specialized cushioning or support required for long-distance running.
How often should I treat the leather?
If you live in a wet or harsh climate, applying a leather protectant spray once every few months can help maintain the material's resistance to moisture.
Is the material real leather?
Yes, this specific model is constructed with a leather upper for increased durability and a premium feel.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight out of the box
Leather requires a break-in period; wear them for short durations indoors to gradually stretch the material to your foot shape.
Surface scuffs on leather
Use a specialized leather cleaner or a soft, slightly damp cloth to gently buff out minor scuffs.
Squeaking sound while walking
Ensure the insole is properly positioned and the laces are not overly tight, which can sometimes cause friction against the tongue.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
For the best fit, ensure you select your standard UK size, though note that leather versions may feel snug initially. To maintain the appearance of your Vans Old Skool trainers, wipe the leather surface regularly with a damp cloth to remove surface dirt and grime. Avoid machine washing or submerging them in water, as this can damage the structural integrity of the leather and adhesive. If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can cause the leather to stiffen or crack.
