FAQs
Are the Vans Brooklyn Trainers water-resistant?
No, the suede material is porous and will absorb water; it is recommended to apply a suede-safe protective spray if you expect to be in light damp conditions.
How do I ensure I choose the right size?
These trainers follow standard adult UK sizing; if you are between sizes, consider your usual Vans fit or refer to your current footwear for comparison.
Can these be washed in a machine?
No, machine washing can damage the suede texture and the adhesive of the soles. Always clean by hand using appropriate tools.
Are these shoes suitable for skateboarding?
While they feature the signature waffle sole, they are designed primarily for lifestyle and everyday wear; dedicated skate-specific models may offer higher reinforcement for technical tricks.
How should I store them to keep them looking new?
Keep them in a cool, dry place and use shoe trees or paper stuffing to help maintain the shape of the upper.
Troubleshooting
Visible dust or dry dirt on the suede
Use a soft suede brush to gently stroke the surface and lift away debris.
Minor scuff marks
Use a suede-specific eraser to rub the affected area gently until the mark lifts.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Durable suede construction

Cons
- Suede material is sensitive to moisture and stains
- Requires regular cleaning to maintain original colour
- Not intended for heavy-duty hiking or technical sports
Setup, Compatibility & Care
For the best fit, ensure you are wearing the appropriate socks for your activity level. To clean the suede material, use a dedicated suede brush to remove loose dirt and a specialized suede eraser for minor scuffs. Avoid saturating the shoes with water, as this can stiffen the leather and distort the colour. When storing, keep them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the grey colour from fading over time.
