Product Information

Full details

The Vans Pearlised Yacht Club Old Skool 36 trainers are designed for adults seeking a blend of classic skate heritage and a sophisticated, modern aesthetic. These unisex trainers feature a clean white upper accented with nautical-inspired blue and green tones, finished with a subtle pearlescent sheen that elevates them above standard daily footwear. While the durable construction makes them an excellent choice for everyday wear, users should be mindful that the light-coloured upper requires regular cleaning to maintain its premium look.

FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Yes, they generally fit true to size for standard adult UK sizing. If you have particularly wide feet, you may prefer a half-size larger for comfort.

Can I skate in the Pearlised Yacht Club editions?

While they are built on the classic Old Skool chassis, the pearlescent finish is primarily aesthetic and may scuff or wear away faster than standard canvas when exposed to grip tape.

Is the material waterproof?

No, these trainers are not waterproof. It is recommended to apply a water-repellent protector spray to help guard against light moisture.

Are these suitable for people with flat feet?

The Old Skool provides a standard flat footbed. If you require significant arch support, you may wish to add an aftermarket orthotic insole.

How do I ensure the colour doesn't fade?

Keep the shoes out of direct, intense sunlight for prolonged periods and avoid using bleach or heavy detergents when cleaning.

Troubleshooting

Stubborn surface stains on white sections

Use a specialized sneaker cleaner or a gentle mixture of baking soda and water applied with a soft-bristled toothbrush, scrubbing lightly.

Laces becoming frayed or dirty

Remove the laces and soak them in a small basin of warm soapy water, or replace them with standard flat cotton laces for a crisp, new look.

Loss of shine on the pearlescent surface

Gently wipe the surface with a soft microfiber cloth; avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive brushes that may strip the finish.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Out of the box, the Vans Old Skool 36 requires no break-in period for most users, though the canvas/material upper will soften over time with regular wear. To maintain the integrity of the pearlescent finish and keep the white areas bright, avoid machine washing. Instead, spot clean using a soft cloth, mild soap, and cold water. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, which can damage the adhesive and rubber materials. Store your shoes in a cool, dry place when not in use, and consider using a water-repellent spray specifically designed for footwear to protect the upper from accidental stains and spills.
