FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, the Vans Old Skool typically fits true to standard UK adult shoe sizing.
Can these be washed in a machine?
Machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the leather and the adhesives holding the sole.
Does the blue color bleed?
While the dye is high-quality, it is best to avoid exposing the shoes to excessive moisture or soaking to maintain color integrity.
Do these provide arch support?
The Old Skool features a classic flat footbed. Users needing extra arch support often add aftermarket orthotic insoles.
What is the primary material used?
The upper is constructed from durable leather, which offers more structure and durability than the traditional canvas models.
Troubleshooting
Stiff leather feel upon first use
Gently flex the shoe by hand and wear them for short periods around the house to soften the leather fibers.
Scuff marks on the leather surface
Use a specialized leather eraser or a slightly damp microfiber cloth to buff out superficial marks.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Vans Old Skool trainers remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Break-in Period: Wear them for short durations indoors initially to allow the leather to mold to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Use a soft brush or a damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For deeper stains on the leather, use a professional-grade leather cleaner suitable for colored footwear.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the blue pigment from fading.
- Compatibility: These trainers feature a standard fit; they work best with mid-weight cotton or bamboo socks for moisture management.
