Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Wear them for short periods initially, or use thicker socks to help stretch them gradually. Shoe stretchers can also be used for more persistent tightness.
Pearlized finish losing shine
Gently clean with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid excessive moisture or abrasive cleaning methods. Ensure they are stored away from direct sunlight.
Sole feels stiff
The vulcanized sole will become more flexible with regular wear. Flexing the shoe gently with your hands can also help break it in.
Laces fraying
Replace laces with standard Vans laces or similar durable flat laces available from most shoe retailers.
