FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for professional use?
The black and white colorway is discreet and often acceptable in business-casual environments, depending on your workplace dress code.
Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?
It is not recommended. Machine washing can damage the adhesive and cause the shape of the shoe to deteriorate.
Is the Vans Faulkner a unisex model?
Yes, the design is categorized as unisex, though sizing is listed using UK adult standards.
Do these provide good arch support?
They feature a standard skate shoe footbed which is relatively flat; users requiring extra support may choose to insert aftermarket insoles.
How do I ensure I get the right size?
Refer to the UK size guide provided; if you are between sizes, we recommend sizing up to ensure comfort.
Troubleshooting
Sole losing grip
Wipe the bottom of the soles with a damp cloth to remove accumulated dust and debris.
White sidewalls looking dingy
Use a specialized rubber cleaner or a mixture of baking soda and water with a toothbrush to restore the white finish.
Canvas stains
Gently blot the area with a cold, damp cloth and mild detergent. Do not rub aggressively to avoid fraying the fabric.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Vans Faulkner shoes, it is recommended to treat them with a water and stain repellent spray immediately after purchase. For sizing, these shoes generally run true to size in UK measurements. To clean, use a soft-bristled brush with a mild soap solution to spot-clean the canvas; avoid machine washing to prevent the glue bonds from weakening. Always allow your shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can warp the rubber components.
