FAQs

What are the primary materials used in these trainers?

The uppers are primarily made of canvas, with textile and synthetic components. The outsole is made of rubber.

How do I clean the orange camouflage canvas?

Spot clean the canvas with a damp cloth and a mild detergent. Avoid machine washing or soaking the shoes.

Are these trainers suitable for skateboarding?

The Vans Authentic 'Style 44' was originally popular with skaters for its Waffle sole grip. While these premium versions offer good traction for casual use, they are not designed as specialized performance skate shoes.

What does 'Taller Sidewalls' mean for the fit?

Taller sidewalls provide a more secure fit around the ankle and midfoot, offering increased support compared to shoes with lower sidewalls.

How does the Sola Foam ADC cushioning feel?

Sola Foam ADC cushioning is designed to offer a comfortable and supportive feel underfoot, suitable for everyday wear.

Do these trainers come in other colors?

This specific guide is for the Orange Camouflage variant. Please check product listings for availability of other colors and patterns.

What is the 'Heel Scab' detail?

The 'heel scab' is a small, often reinforced piece of material on the heel area, referencing the shoe's heritage and construction.

Troubleshooting

Discoloration of camouflage pattern

Avoid harsh cleaning agents. Use a mild soap and water solution for spot cleaning. Test cleaning methods on an inconspicuous area first.

Squeaking noise from shoes

This can sometimes occur due to friction between the insole and outsole. Try removing the insole and inserting a thin paper towel or powder to absorb moisture and reduce friction.

Reduced grip on the outsole

Clean the Waffle outsole with a brush and water to remove accumulated dirt or debris that may be hindering grip.

Canvas feels stiff

Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow them to break in naturally. Flexing them gently by hand can also help.
