FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for sports?

The Vans Old Skool V trainers are designed for lifestyle and casual wear. While they offer good support for everyday activities like walking and playing, they are not specifically designed for high-impact sports.

How do I know which size to order?

Vans shoes are generally true to size. We recommend ordering your child's usual size. You can also refer to the size chart provided by the retailer for specific measurements and compare them to your child's foot length.

Can these shoes be worn by boys and girls?

Yes, these trainers are unisex and designed to be suitable for both boys and girls. The black color and classic style are versatile.

How do I clean the leather upper?

Wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust and dirt. For more stubborn marks, use a cleaner specifically formulated for black leather. Avoid using harsh chemicals.

What is the main advantage of the hook-and-loop closures?

The hook-and-loop closures, often referred to as Velcro straps, make it very easy for children to put on and take off their shoes independently, promoting self-sufficiency.

Do these shoes come in half sizes?

Half sizes are available in selected sizes for the Vans Old Skool V. Please check the available size options for confirmation.

How durable is the leather material?

The leather upper is chosen for its durability and ability to provide support, making it suitable for active children. However, like all leather products, it benefits from proper care to maintain its condition.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable

Ensure you have selected the correct size. Check the fit by having the child try them on with the socks they typically wear. The leather may also need a short break-in period.

Velcro straps not securing properly

Check that the Velcro surfaces are clean and free of lint or debris. Gently brush the hooks and loops to restore their grip.

Leather scuff marks appear

Light scuffs can often be buffed out with a soft cloth. For deeper marks, a black leather shoe polish or color restorer may be necessary.

Shoes smell after wear

Remove insoles if possible and air them out separately. Use a shoe deodorizer or baking soda inside the shoes overnight. Ensure shoes are dried properly after any dampness.

Care:

  1. Cleaning the Leather: Wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, use a leather cleaner specifically designed for black leather.
