FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard sizing conventions for adult trainers.
Can I use these for skateboarding?
While the Old Skool was originally a skate shoe, this specific variant is best suited for lifestyle and casual use.
How do I keep the white parts of the checkerboard clean?
Regular spot cleaning with a soft cloth and soapy water is recommended to prevent dirt buildup.
Are the insoles removable?
The insoles are generally fixed, though some users choose to add their own orthopedic inserts for extra support.
Does the green color fade?
As with any dyed fabric, prolonged exposure to direct, harsh sunlight may cause minor fading over time.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty putting on the shoe due to stiffness
Loosen the laces significantly before inserting your foot to prevent straining the heel counter.
Stains on the checkered pattern
Use a specialized sneaker cleaning solution or a mild mixture of detergent and water with a soft brush to gently scrub the affected area.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These shoes are ready to wear straight out of the box. To ensure a long life for your trainers, avoid machine washing, which can degrade the canvas and glue bonds. Instead, use a soft-bristled brush or a damp cloth with mild soap to spot-clean any dirt from the checkered areas. If the shoes get wet, let them air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, as high heat can warp the rubber components or cause the fabric to shrink.
