Full details

The Vans Old Skool 36 trainers are designed for adult women who appreciate a blend of iconic skater heritage and modern summer style.

FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Yes, they generally follow standard UK sizing for adults. If you prefer a wider fit or thicker socks, some users find a half-size up is more comfortable.

Can I put these in the dryer?

No. Intense heat from a dryer can melt the rubber components and ruin the adhesive, leading to the sole detaching from the upper.

Are these suitable for skateboarding?

While they pay homage to the brand's skate heritage, this specific embellished model is better suited for lifestyle and fashion wear rather than high-impact skating.

How do I protect the blue color from fading?

Keep the shoes out of prolonged, intense direct sunlight when not in use and avoid using harsh chemical cleaners that can bleach the fabric.

What is the best way to clean the white rubber part of the sole?

Use a magic eraser or a mixture of baking soda and water applied with an old toothbrush to buff away scuff marks.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight initially

The foam insole and canvas upper will naturally stretch and mold to your foot shape after a few days of consistent wear.

Squeaking sound when walking

Ensure the insole is pressed firmly into the footbed. If it persists, check if moisture has entered the shoe and allow it to fully dry.

Dirt stuck in the waffle sole

Use a toothpick or a firm, dry bristle brush to gently dislodge gravel or debris trapped in the sole patterns.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Classic, timeless aesthetic that pairs well with various casual outfits
  • Padded collar provides immediate comfort and ankle support
  • Reliable traction from the traditional rubber waffle outsole
  • Soft foam insole reduces foot fatigue during daily walking

Cons

  • Primarily designed for casual use rather than intensive sports
  • Light-colored embellishments may require careful cleaning to avoid damage
  • Canvas materials are susceptible to staining in wet or muddy conditions

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These trainers come ready to wear directly out of the box. To ensure a proper fit, ensure you are wearing socks of a medium thickness, as the foam insole provides a snug wrap around the foot.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning: Spot clean any debris or surface dirt using a soft brush or a slightly dampened cloth with mild soap.
  • Avoid Submersion: Do not soak the shoes in water or place them in a washing machine, as this can degrade the glue and internal foam padding.
  • Air Dry: If the shoes become damp, allow them to air dry in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can warp the rubber components.
