FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for skateboarding?

Yes, the Style 44 is built with durable materials that can withstand skateboarding, though the leather construction may feel different than traditional canvas.

Do these fit true to size?

Generally, yes. However, because they are made of leather, they may feel snug at first compared to canvas shoes.

Can I put these in the washing machine?

No, you should never put leather shoes in a washing machine, as it can ruin the material and the adhesive.

Are they waterproof?

While leather is naturally more water-resistant than fabric, they are not waterproof. Using a leather protectant spray can help with light moisture.

Are these unisex?

Yes, the Vans Style 44 is designed as a unisex product.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too stiff upon first wear

This is expected with leather. Wear them around the house for short periods with thick socks to expedite the break-in process.

Leather surface shows scuffs

Use a leather conditioning cream or a matching color polish to buff out scuffs and restore the finish.

Heel slippage

Ensure the laces are tightened properly, especially the top eyelets. You may also use an insert or heel grip if the size is slightly loose.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable full-leather upper
  • Timeless, versatile design
  • Sturdy construction suitable for skateboarding
  • Unisex fit

Cons

  • Leather requires a break-in period
  • Limited arch support typical of low-top sneakers

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Vans Style 44s last, follow these guidelines:

  1. Break-in: Wear them with thicker socks for the first few outings to protect your heels while the leather softens to your foot shape.
  2. Cleaning: Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a dedicated leather cleaner or a slightly damp cloth with mild soap; never submerge leather shoes in water.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent leather cracking or fading.
  4. Protection: Apply a leather-safe water and stain repellent spray to enhance longevity and protect against spills.
