FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for wide feet?

The Classic Mid Skool trainers generally have a standard fit. If you have particularly wide feet, they might feel snug initially. Trying them on is the best way to determine fit.

How do I clean the suede parts?

Use a dedicated suede brush to gently remove dirt and restore the nap. For tougher stains, a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner can be used.

Can I wear these for running?

These trainers are designed for casual wear and light activities. They do not offer the specialized support or cushioning required for serious running.

What is the primary material of the upper?

The upper is primarily made from durable cotton canvas, with suede toe and heel caps and leather accents.

How do I know if UK 8 is the right size for me?

It's best to measure your foot length in centimeters or inches and compare it to the Vans size chart, or try on a pair in-store if possible, as sizing can vary between brands.

Will these shoes provide good grip on slippery surfaces?

The vulcanized rubber sole is designed to offer good grip and traction for everyday use and skateboarding. However, caution is always advised on excessively wet or icy surfaces.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Wear them with thin socks initially and gradually switch to thicker socks. Use a shoe stretcher if persistent tightness occurs.

Squeaking noise when walking

This can sometimes occur with new soles. Try walking on different surfaces or place a small powder inside the shoe (talc or baking soda) to absorb moisture.

Canvas material getting dirty easily

Apply a protective spray designed for canvas and suede before wear. Clean minor marks promptly with a damp cloth.

Laces fraying

Replace worn laces with standard flat shoelaces. Ensure the correct length is chosen for the eight eyelets.
