FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

No, the Vans Authentic series is designed for casual wear and skateboarding, not high-impact running or athletic performance.

Can I put these in the washing machine?

No, machine washing can damage the suede material and the vulcanized sole construction. Stick to spot cleaning.

Do these run true to size?

Vans Authentic trainers generally fit true to size. If you are between sizes, it is recommended to try on both to find your preferred comfort level.

How do I protect the suede?

Using a water and stain repellent spray specifically designed for suede can help prevent marks from setting into the fabric.

What is the rubber foxing?

The foxing is the rubber strip that wraps around the edge of the shoe, connecting the sole to the upper for durability.

Troubleshooting

Suede looks dull or matted

Use a specialized suede brush to gently lift the fibers and restore the texture.

Stains on the rubber foxing

Use a magic eraser or a damp cloth with mild soap to scrub the rubber surface until clean.

Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Vans Authentic trainers remain in top condition, proper care is essential. Since the upper is crafted from suede, avoid exposing them to harsh weather conditions. To clean, use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt, and spot clean stubborn stains with a damp cloth and mild cleaning solution. Do not submerge or machine wash these shoes, as the moisture can damage the suede texture and weaken the vulcanized bond. Always allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources to prevent material shrinkage or warping.
