Do these sneakers run true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard Vans SK8-HI sizing conventions.
Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?

Troubleshooting
Laces becoming undone frequently
Use a double knot or replace with slightly longer laces if using a high-tension lacing style.
Surface scuffs on the upper
Use a specialized sneaker eraser or a gentle shoe cleaner specifically formulated for canvas or suede materials.
Loss of traction on the outsole
Wipe the rubber waffle outsole with a damp cloth to remove compacted dust or debris.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Vans remain in top condition, keep them away from harsh cleaning chemicals. Clean surface-level dirt using a soft-bristled brush or a damp cloth with mild soap. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources to prevent material damage or warping. When lacing, ensure you pull the laces evenly across the eyelets to maintain the structural integrity of the padded collars. Due to the high-top nature, these are best paired with socks that offer enough height to prevent rubbing against the ankle.
