FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The Old Skool 36 has a standard fit. While the canvas material may stretch slightly over time to accommodate the foot, individuals with very wide feet may prefer to go up half a size.
How do I clean the white parts of the shoe?
Use a damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid machine washing, as this can degrade the glue and structural integrity of the shoes.
Can I wear these for sports?
These are lifestyle trainers. While durable, they are not designed for high-impact sports, running, or specialized gym workouts.
Do I need to spray these with a protectant?
Applying a water and stain repellent spray can help protect the material, especially the white portions, from dirt and minor liquid spills.
How long should they last?
Durability depends on usage frequency, but with proper care and rotating your shoes, they are designed to last through many months of regular daily wear.
Are these unisex?
Vans Old Skool styles are generally considered unisex, though this specific variant is listed with UK adult sizing for a male fit.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight across the top of the foot
Adjust the lacing pattern to a wider configuration, skipping a set of eyelets if necessary to reduce pressure.
White trim is showing signs of scuffing
Use a specialized rubber eraser or a dampened cloth with a small amount of non-abrasive cleaner to gently buff the marks.
Insole feels worn after long-term use
Consider replacing the original footbed with an aftermarket performance insole to refresh comfort levels.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
When you first receive your Vans Old Skool 36 Metagirl trainers, ensure they are laced comfortably to suit your foot volume—not too tight, allowing for natural expansion throughout the day. Compatibility-wise, these shoes pair perfectly with denim, chinos, or casual shorts. To maintain their appearance, keep a soft-bristled brush handy for removing surface dirt after use. For deeper cleaning, spot clean with mild soap and water rather than submerging them, and always allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources to prevent material damage or warping.
