FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard Vans sizing conventions. If you have previously owned Old Skool models, choose the same size.
Can I use these for professional skateboarding?
While they are built with durable construction, these are lifestyle editions of the Old Skool. They are better suited for casual wear than professional-grade skate sessions.
How do I clean the canvas portions?
Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt and a mild detergent solution to spot clean stains. Allow them to air dry completely.
Does the black color fade quickly?
Like most canvas footwear, extended exposure to intense sunlight can cause fading. Store your shoes in a cool, dark place when not in use.
Is the insole removable?
Yes, the standard Vans insole is typically removable, allowing you to insert custom orthotics if required.
Troubleshooting
Scuffs on the white rubber midsole
Use a specialized sneaker eraser or a mixture of mild soap and water with a soft cloth to gently buff out marks.
Tight fit around the instep
Loosen the laces starting from the bottom eyelets upward to allow more room for your foot to settle into the shoe.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
When you first unbox your trainers, ensure the fit is snug but not restrictive across the midfoot. These shoes pair well with denim, chinos, or athletic shorts, making them highly compatible with casual wardrobes. To keep them looking fresh, regularly wipe the rubber midsole with a damp cloth or a soft-bristled brush. Avoid machine washing, as this can degrade the adhesives and structural integrity of the canvas or suede panels. If the shoes get wet, air-dry them at room temperature, keeping them away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent material warping or cracking.
