FAQs
How do I measure my child's foot?
Place your child's foot on a piece of paper and trace around it. Measure the length from heel to toe and compare it to the Vans size chart.
Are these shoes machine washable?
It is not recommended to machine wash these shoes. Spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap.
What kind of socks should my child wear with these?
Any type of sock is suitable, but consider the weather. Thicker socks may be needed during colder months.
How do I care for the suede?
Use a suede brush to remove dirt and a suede cleaner for tougher stains. Avoid getting the suede overly wet.
What if the shoes don't fit?
Check the retailer's return policy. Most retailers allow returns or exchanges within a specific timeframe if the shoes are unworn.
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
While Vans offer a range of fits, these may not be ideal for very wide feet. It’s best to try them on, or check with a local store if possible.
