FAQs

What material is the upper made of?

The upper is constructed from heavyweight canvas and suede, with leather knot detailing.

What is the main advantage of the Vibram outsole?

The Vibram outsole provides enhanced durability and superior grip on a variety of surfaces compared to standard rubber soles.

Are these shoes suitable for formal occasions?

No, these are casual low-top sneakers and are best suited for informal and everyday wear.

How should I clean the suede parts of the shoes?

Use a dedicated suede brush for regular cleaning and a suede eraser or cleaner for stains. Always protect with a suede protector spray.

What does 'OTW Old Skool 36 Knot Vibram' refer to?

This refers to a specific Vans model that is a reworked version of the classic Old Skool, featuring unique knot details and a Vibram sole.

Is the sizing true to size?

Vans generally fit true to size for most individuals. It is recommended to check the size guide and consider trying them on if possible.

Can these shoes be worn in wet weather?

While the Vibram sole offers good grip, the suede and canvas upper are not waterproof. It's best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain to protect the materials.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel stiff initially

This is common with premium materials like suede and Vibram. Wear the shoes for short periods to allow them to break in and mold to your feet.

Suede getting wet or stained

Avoid wearing in heavy rain. For minor stains, use a suede eraser or brush. For tougher stains, consult a professional suede cleaner.

Laces becoming worn or dirty

Laces can be easily replaced. Hand wash dirty laces with mild soap and water, then air dry.

Traction seems reduced

Clean the Vibram outsole thoroughly with a brush to remove embedded dirt or debris that might be affecting grip.
