Product Information

Full details

The Vans Old Skool 36 Trainers in blue checkered wool are designed for adults seeking a blend of classic skate heritage and high-fashion aesthetics. Featuring unique Harris Tweed materials and punk-inspired jewelry accents, these shoes offer a sophisticated, textured look suitable for casual outings and streetwear fashion; however, the delicate decorative elements like crystal studs and brooches require careful maintenance compared to standard canvas trainers.

FAQs

Can I put these in the washing machine?

No, the wool material and crystal/stud decorations will be damaged by machine washing. Spot clean only.

Are these suitable for professional skateboarding?

While based on a skate silhouette, the jewelry and wool finish make these a fashion-focused item not recommended for technical skate use.

Does the wool make them hot in summer?

Wool is a natural, breathable fiber, but these shoes are generally warmer than standard canvas trainers and are best suited for moderate to cool weather.

Are the decorative elements removable?

The jewelry and brooches are integrated into the design. Attempting to remove them may cause permanent damage to the wool upper.

How do these fit compared to other Vans?

They generally follow the standard Vans sizing for the Old Skool 36 line; they are true-to-size but provide a slightly firmer fit initially due to the wool construction.

Troubleshooting

Decorative stud or brooch feels loose

Avoid tugging at decorative elements and contact a professional cobbler if a piece needs secure re-attachment.

Wool surface becomes dusty

Use a specialized garment brush to lift dust from the weave of the Harris Tweed without damaging the fibers.

Insole comfort decreases over time

Consider replacing the internal sockliner with a high-quality third-party orthotic insole if you require more arch support.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because these trainers feature wool and jewelry-like attachments, maintenance is different from standard sneakers. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or putting them in a washing machine, as this can ruin the wool texture and loosen the decorative studs. To clean, use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface dirt from the wool. For the jewelry elements, wipe occasionally with a clean, dry microfiber cloth. When not in use, store these shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the blue checkered pattern from fading over time.
