FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Yes, the Vans Old Skool 36 generally fits true to UK adult sizing standards.

Can I put these in the washing machine?

No, machine washing can cause the suede to shrink, discolor, or lose its texture. Hand cleaning with appropriate tools is recommended.

Is this model suitable for professional skating?

While based on heritage skater designs, this version features a lifestyle-focused foam insole and suede upper, making it better suited for daily walking and casual wear.

How do I best protect the paint splatter detailing?

Keep the shoes away from harsh cleaning chemicals and ensure you use a gentle brush when cleaning the surrounding suede to avoid pulling on the details.

What is the primary material used for the upper?

The upper is constructed from premium suede, which provides a classic look and soft feel.

Troubleshooting

The suede is showing water spots or dirt buildup.

Allow the shoes to dry completely, then use a suede brush to gently lift the nap of the material and loosen the dirt.

The shoes feel too stiff initially.

Suede and rubber trainers require a short break-in period; wear them for short durations indoors to allow the materials to soften and conform to your foot shape.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Vans remain in top condition, follow these care steps:

Cleaning: Use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt and dust. Avoid submerging the shoes in water as this can damage the suede fibers.
Stain Removal: For minor marks, use a white pencil eraser or a suede-specific cleaning block. Avoid heavy cleaning agents that may cause discoloration.
Protection: Apply a suede-safe water and stain repellent spray to help protect the material from environmental elements.
Storage: Keep your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can fade the grey and cream tones over time.
