Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Vans Authentic trainers maintain their condition, follow these guidelines:
- Break-in: Wear them for short durations indoors initially to allow the canvas to soften and mold to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt. For deeper stains, use a mild soap and a damp cloth; avoid machine washing to prevent damage to the rubber bonding.
- Storage: Keep them in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent canvas fading.
- Compatibility: These trainers feature a standard UK 8.5 fit and are compatible with most standard flat laces if you wish to customize the look.
