Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
- Unpack: Remove trainers from packaging.
- Adjust Velcro: Open the hook-and-loop straps completely.
- Insert Foot: Gently guide your toddler's foot into the trainer, ensuring their heel is fully seated.
- Secure Straps: Fasten the hook-and-loop straps across the top of the foot, adjusting for a snug yet comfortable fit. Ensure straps are not too tight, which could restrict circulation, or too loose, which could cause slipping.
Compatibility
These trainers are designed for toddlers and are suitable for everyday casual wear. Their classic style makes them versatile for various outfits and activities, from park visits to family outings.
Care Instructions
Proper care will extend the life and appearance of your Vans Old Skool V trainers.
- General Cleaning:
- For light dirt, wipe the canvas and suede areas with a soft, damp cloth.
- For tougher stains on canvas, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush, then wipe clean.
- For suede, use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt and a suede eraser for scuffs.
- Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as this can damage the materials and construction.
- Drying: Allow trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat or sunlight. Stuffing with paper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape.
- Protection: Consider using a protective spray specifically designed for canvas and suede to help repel water and stains.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
