FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for skateboarding?
While the Vans Slip-On Reissue 98 features the signature waffle sole for grip, they are primarily designed as casual lifestyle shoes. For dedicated skateboarding, consider Vans models specifically engineered for skate performance.
How do I determine my UK size?
The product information provided specifies the UK size. It is recommended to refer to a standard shoe size conversion chart if you are unsure of your exact UK sizing.
Can I wash these shoes in a washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash Vans canvas shoes, as this can damage the adhesives, materials, and overall structure. Hand washing with mild soap and water is the preferred method.
What does 'Reissue 98' signify?
'Reissue 98' indicates that this model is a reproduction or revival of a specific design from Vans' history, often referencing popular styles from that era, updated with modern manufacturing techniques.
How do I clean the cream-colored canvas?
Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt. For stains, apply a small amount of mild soap to a damp cloth or soft brush and gently scrub the affected area. Rinse with a clean damp cloth and allow to air dry.
What is the main difference between the Slip-On and other Vans models?
The primary difference is the slip-on construction, meaning they do not have laces. This offers a minimalist design and exceptional ease of wear compared to lace-up Vans shoes.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Canvas shoes can sometimes feel snug initially. Wear them around the house for short periods to allow them to stretch and conform to your foot shape. Avoid wearing them outside until they feel comfortable.
Difficulty slipping shoes on
Ensure your heel is positioned correctly in the back of the shoe. You can use a shoehorn for assistance, especially when the shoes are new.
Canvas material getting dirty easily
Regular light cleaning with a soft brush can help prevent dirt from setting in. For tougher stains, follow the cleaning instructions in the 'Care' section promptly.
