Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Vans Old Skool trainers last, begin by ensuring you have selected the correct UK size 5.5 for an optimal fit. Before wearing them out, consider applying a water and stain repellent spray to protect the fabric upper from the elements. To clean, use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt or mud. For tougher stains, use a mild soap and water solution with a damp cloth, avoiding machine washing or heavy soaking, which can compromise the glue and structural integrity of the shoes. Allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent material warping.
