FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for actual skateboarding?

Yes, the SK8-HI design is renowned for its ankle support and durable construction, making it a popular choice for skateboarding.

What material is the upper made of?

The upper is made of durable leather.

How do I determine my UK size?

Refer to the size chart provided by Vans or measure your foot length and compare it to the UK sizing guide. This specific model is listed as UK 5.5.

Can these shoes be worn in wet weather?

While the leather offers some protection, they are not waterproof. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain and to treat the leather with a protector spray.

How do I clean the green accents?

The green accents, being part of the leather, can be cleaned similarly to the white leather using a damp cloth and mild cleaner. Test on an inconspicuous area first.

What is the main difference between SK8-HI and other Vans models?

The primary difference is the high-top silhouette, which offers increased ankle support and a distinct visual style compared to low-top Vans models.

Troubleshooting

Shoe feels too tight

Wear them with thicker socks for a short period to allow the leather to stretch naturally. Alternatively, consider a shoe stretcher.

Laces fraying

Replace laces with a new pair of Vans or standard shoelaces of similar length and material.

Leather scuff marks

For minor scuffs, try a leather conditioner or a specialized leather cleaner. For deeper marks, professional leather repair may be needed.

Discoloration on white leather

Gently clean with a mild soap and water solution or a specialized white leather cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals.
