FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for professional skateboarding?

Yes, they are based on the original design intended for skate performance and offer the necessary durability for the sport.

Do I need to treat the fabric for water resistance?

While not required, applying a standard fabric protector spray can help repel light moisture and keep the shoes cleaner for longer.

How do I ensure I have the right size?

The Anaheim Factory series generally aligns with standard Vans sizing; check your existing Vans trainers for the most accurate reference.

Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?

It is not recommended to machine wash these shoes, as it can damage the adhesive and structural integrity of the high-top design.

Are these unisex?

Yes, the aesthetic and design are suitable for all genders, though sizing is listed by standard adult UK metrics.

Troubleshooting

Stiff fit during initial wear

Wear the shoes for short periods at home to allow the materials to flex and contour to your foot shape naturally.

Difficulty putting on the shoe

Loosen the laces significantly down to the toe box to provide maximum clearance for your foot entry.

Surface dirt accumulation

Use a dry, soft-bristled brush to remove loose dirt from the canvas or suede before using a damp cloth for deeper cleaning.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For the best fit, ensure you select your standard UK sizing, keeping in mind that the Anaheim Factory series is designed to stay true to its original dimensions. When it comes to care, spot cleaning with a soft cloth and mild soap is recommended for the textile sections. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh chemicals, as this can degrade the bonding agents and materials. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources to prevent material warping or cracking.
