Vans Old Skool - Green - Suede - 11.5

The Vibram outsole is renowned for its exceptional durability and superior grip. It's designed to provide reliable traction on a variety of surfaces, enhancing stability and performance.

While they feature durable construction and good grip, the Vans Old Skool 36 Knot Vibram are primarily designed for casual wear and style. For professional skateboarding, specialized skate shoes with more impact protection might be recommended.

The leather cord knots can be gently wiped with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive moisture to maintain their appearance and integrity.

This model features premium upgrades including a heavyweight canvas and suede upper, unique leather cord knot detailing, a leather footbed with cushioning, and a custom Vibram outsole, distinguishing it from the standard Old Skool silhouette.

The Vibram outsole offers good grip, but the suede and canvas upper are not waterproof. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to protect the materials.

Vans Old Skool generally runs true to size. However, due to the premium materials and upgraded construction, some users may find a slight difference. Refer to Vans' official sizing chart for the most accurate measurement.

This can sometimes occur with new shoes. Try applying a small amount of baby powder or cornstarch under the insole, or ensure laces are properly tied and not rubbing excessively.

Ensure you are not dragging your feet excessively. Regular cleaning of the outsole can also help maintain its integrity and prevent uneven wear patterns.

Wear the shoes for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time. Using thicker socks can also help stretch the materials slightly for a more comfortable fit.

Use a dedicated suede brush and cleaner. Always test cleaning products on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid using water directly on suede as it can cause discoloration or stiffness.
