FAQs

What makes the Old Skool 36 LX different from the standard Old Skool?

The LX (Luxury) designation typically means premium materials and construction. This version features pony hair uppers and leather lining, offering a more elevated look and feel than standard canvas models.

How do I clean the pony hair material?

Gently brush with a soft brush. For stains, use a dedicated pony hair or suede cleaner, applying minimally and blotting. Avoid water saturation.

Are these suitable for skateboarding?

While built with skate-inspired construction, the premium pony hair material is delicate and not ideal for heavy skateboarding. They are best suited for casual wear and light skating.

What is the Ortholite® insole?

Ortholite® insoles are designed for enhanced cushioning, breathability, and moisture management, providing superior comfort compared to standard insoles.

How do I ensure I get the right size?

Refer to Vans' official size chart for accurate measurements. These are adult men's sizing, but often considered unisex. Check reviews for specific fit feedback.

Can I wash these in a washing machine?

No, machine washing is not recommended. It can damage the pony hair, leather, glue, and overall construction of the shoe.

What does 'High Foxing Tape' refer to?

High foxing tape is the rubber strip that runs along the side of the shoe, connecting the upper to the sole. In this design, it is applied higher up the shoe for added durability and a distinct Vans look.

Troubleshooting

Pony hair appears matted or dirty

Use a soft-bristled brush to gently lift and clean the hair. For stains, use a specific pony hair cleaner and follow product instructions carefully.

Shoes feel tight

Leather and pony hair can stretch slightly with wear. Wear them for short periods initially. Consider using a shoe stretcher if persistent tightness occurs.

Laces are worn

Replacement laces can be purchased from Vans or general footwear retailers. Ensure to get laces of a similar length and style.

Soles losing grip

Ensure the soles are clean, as dirt can reduce traction. For significant wear, professional sole repair might be an option, though typically soles are replaced.
