Product Information
Full details
The Vans Authentic Mule is designed for adults seeking a perfect blend of iconic skate-shoe aesthetics and the convenience of a modern slip-on. By merging the classic silhouette of the original Authentic sneaker with an open-heel mule design, this footwear offers effortless entry and reliable comfort for daily casual wear. While perfect for quick errands or relaxed environments, users should note that the open-back construction provides less lateral support than a traditional lace-up sneaker.

FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, they generally fit consistent with standard adult sizing for Vans footwear.
Can I use these for skateboarding?
While they feature the same outsole as skate models, the mule design is not recommended for skating due to the lack of heel support.
What material is the upper made of?
The upper is constructed from durable cotton canvas, consistent with the classic Authentic series.
Are they waterproof?
No, these shoes are not waterproof and are intended for dry, casual use.
How should I clean the white rubber trim?
A gentle eraser or a mild detergent with a soft sponge will help remove scuffs and dirt from the rubber sidewalls.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty keeping the shoe on while walking quickly
Ensure you have selected the correct size; mules rely on a snug fit across the midfoot to remain secure.
Dirt accumulation on the waffle outsole
Use a stiff-bristled brush to knock out debris from the deep grooves of the rubber sole.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
No setup is required; the mules are ready to wear immediately out of the box. To ensure your Vans Authentic Mules maintain their appearance, spot-clean them with a damp cloth and mild soap when necessary. Avoid machine washing or submerging the shoes fully in water, as this can damage the structural integrity and materials. To keep them looking fresh, store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading of the green fabric.
