Full details

The Vans Old Skool 36 Trainers are designed for adult males who appreciate a blend of heritage aesthetics and modern comfort.

FAQs

Can I wash these in a machine?

No. The wool material and the construction of the shoe are not machine-safe. Hand-cleaning is required.

Are these shoes true to size?

Yes, they generally follow standard UK sizing for adult male Vans footwear.

How do I care for the rubber sole?

The sole can be wiped down with a damp cloth and mild soap to maintain the intended washed-out look.

Can these be worn in the rain?

It is not recommended. Wool can absorb water and take a long time to dry, which may damage the structure.

Is the side stripe made of leather?

The side stripe is a synthetic material designed to mimic classic leather aesthetics while maintaining the durability of the shoe.

Does the wool material stretch over time?

Like most natural fibers, it may relax slightly after several wears to accommodate your foot shape.

Troubleshooting

Surface stains on the wool upper

Use a dry soft-bristled brush to gently lift dirt, then dab with a damp cloth and a mild detergent specifically formulated for wool.

Creasing at the toe box

This is a natural occurrence with soft-material footwear; using a shoe tree when not in use can help maintain the shape and reduce severe creasing.

Difficulty maintaining cleanliness in wet weather

Apply a water-repellent spray designed for wool products before your first wear to help repel dirt and moisture.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Vans Old Skool 36 trainers, proper maintenance is essential. Given the wool material, avoid submerging the shoes in water or placing them in a washing machine, as this can cause the fibers to shrink or lose their shape. Instead, gently brush off surface dirt with a soft-bristled brush. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized wool-safe foaming cleanser and dab lightly with a damp cloth. For storage, keep them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading of the blue fabric. Always ensure they are completely dry before storage to prevent moisture buildup within the wool fibers.
