Product Information

Full details

The Vans Old Skool V 2-Tone Frost Gray trainers are designed for girls, offering a blend of iconic style and practical comfort for everyday wear. Their key benefit lies in their classic design combined with a convenient touch 'n' close fastening, making them easy for young children to put on and take off. A potential consideration is that while the upper is partly leather, it also includes textile, so users should be mindful of care instructions to maintain the material's appearance.

FAQs

What is the primary material of the Vans Old Skool V trainers?

The upper is composed of 80% leather and 20% textile. The lining is 100% textile, and the sole is 100% rubber.

How do the shoes fasten?

These trainers feature a touch 'n' close fastening system, which uses hook-and-loop straps for easy securing.

Are these shoes suitable for very young children?

Yes, the touch 'n' close fastening makes them easy for toddlers and young children to manage themselves.

What does LWG certification mean for the leather?

LWG certification indicates that the leather comes from tanneries that are assessed for their environmental performance, covering aspects like energy and water consumption, waste, and emissions.

Can these trainers be machine washed?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials and construction of the shoes. Spot cleaning with a damp cloth is the preferred method.

What is the main benefit of the rubber sole?

The 100% rubber sole provides good traction and durability for everyday wear and various activities.

What sizes are available?

These trainers are available in a range of girl's sizes, including toddler sizes from 3.5 up to UK 9.5, and kids' sizes.

Troubleshooting

Touch 'n' close straps losing stickiness

Gently clean the hook and loop surfaces with a small brush or sticky tape to remove lint and debris, restoring their grip.

Discoloration on leather or textile

Use a cleaner specifically designed for the material (leather cleaner for leather, mild soap for textile). Test on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid harsh chemicals.

Soles appear dirty and worn

Clean the rubber soles with a damp cloth and mild soap. For stubborn marks, a non-abrasive cleaning eraser might help.

Shoes feel stiff after drying

Ensure shoes are not dried directly near heat sources. If stiffness persists, a leather conditioner might be applied to the leather parts.
