FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
No, these are casual lifestyle trainers designed for walking and light activity, not high-impact running.
How do I clean the white rubber soles?
Use a magic eraser or a damp cloth with a small amount of mild detergent to gently scrub the sidewalls.
Does the suede require special care?
Yes, use a suede-specific brush to keep the nap lifted and store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
Are they true to size?
Yes, they generally fit true to standard UK sizing for adults.
Can I put these in the dryer?
No, never place your sneakers in the dryer as the high heat can warp the rubber and ruin the adhesive.
Troubleshooting
The shoes feel stiff during the first wear.
This is normal for vulcanized shoes. Wear them for short periods around the house to allow the materials to flex and break in naturally.
Laces coming undone frequently.
Ensure the laces are threaded through the full eye row to maintain even tension and double-knot if necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Vans Brooklyn LS trainers last as long as possible, keep them away from harsh chemicals and extreme heat.
- Sizing: Ensure you select your standard UK size; the accommodating eye row allows for minor adjustments if you prefer a tighter or looser fit.
- Cleaning: For the black fabric and suede components, use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt. Do not machine wash, as this can degrade the vulcanized bond.
- Care: If the rubber sides become scuffed or dirty, use a damp cloth with mild soap to wipe them clean, keeping the white accents looking fresh.
