FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard UK sizing conventions for adult footwear.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
It is not recommended. Washing machines can damage the leather and the pearlised coating; stick to manual cleaning.
Are these suitable for wet weather?
While the leather offers some protection, they are not waterproof. Use a repellent spray to help, but avoid deep puddles.
How do I care for the white leather?
Use a specialized white leather cleaner and a soft-bristled brush to gently remove dirt from crevices.
What is the primary difference between these and standard Old Skools?
The Pearlised series features unique finish details on the upper while retaining the classic silhouette and performance features.
Troubleshooting
Leather surface losing shine
Apply a leather conditioner designed for metallic or coated finishes to restore luster.
Shoes feeling too tight
Ensure laces are not over-tightened and use thinner socks until the leather stretches to your foot shape.
Squeaking sounds while walking
Remove the insole and sprinkle a small amount of talcum powder underneath if moisture is trapped inside.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Vans remain in top condition, follow these care guidelines:
- Cleaning: Since these feature leather, use a damp cloth with mild soap to wipe away surface dirt. Avoid soaking the leather.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the pearlised finish from dulling.
- Breaking In: New leather trainers may feel firm. Wear them for short durations indoors before full-day use to help the material soften.
- Protection: Consider using a leather-safe water and stain repellent spray to protect the surface from the elements.
