Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Vans Old Skool Trainers stay in top shape, follow these simple guidelines:
- Sizing: These shoes fit true to size. Ensure you have the appropriate UK size for your foot to prevent rubbing.
- Breaking In: New canvas shoes may feel stiff initially. Wear them for short durations for the first few days to allow the material to flex to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Do not machine wash. Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt from the canvas. For persistent marks, use a damp cloth with mild soap, and always air dry them away from direct heat sources to prevent the rubber from warping.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent the canvas color from fading over time.
