FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
No, the Brooklyn LS is intended for casual lifestyle wear and does not feature the impact-absorption technology required for running.
How do I choose the right size?
Refer to the adult UK size chart. These trainers feature an accommodating eye row, making them relatively true to size for most foot shapes.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
It is not recommended. Machine washing can compromise the vulcanized bond and damage the materials.
What does the waffle outsole do?
The iconic waffle outsole provides excellent board-feel and grip on various flat surfaces.
Is the Brooklyn LS gender-specific?
These trainers are listed as unisex-style adult shoes, accommodating a range of foot shapes.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too stiff when new
Vulcanized rubber requires a break-in period. Wear them for short walks around the house to soften the materials.
Difficulty maintaining cleanliness on the sole
Use a specialized rubber eraser or a damp cloth with mild soap to clean the sidewalls of the waffle sole.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Vans Brooklyn LS trainers last as long as possible, follow these guidelines:
- Break-in Period: Because of the durable vulcanized construction, wear them for short durations initially to allow the materials to adapt to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Gently brush off dried dirt using a soft-bristled brush. For tougher stains, use a mild soap and a damp cloth; avoid submerging them in water or using harsh chemicals.
- Storage: Keep your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent material fading or rubber degradation.
- Fit: Ensure you check the sizing guide, as these are designed for an adult fit and maintain a specific shape through the mid-foot.
