Full details

FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, the Vans Classic Slip-On 98 generally fits true to standard UK adult sizing.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
It is generally recommended to hand clean them to preserve the integrity of the adhesive and the shape of the shoe, as machine washing can cause excess wear.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
The canvas upper has a bit of natural give, which often makes them comfortable for those with wider feet, though they are built on a standard width profile.
Can I replace the insoles?
While the factory insoles are designed to be part of the shoe, they can be removed if you choose to insert custom orthotics for better arch support.
Are these good for skating?
While these are inspired by original skate silhouettes, the Classic 98 is primarily marketed for casual, everyday lifestyle wear.
Troubleshooting
The fit feels slightly tight on the top of the foot
The canvas material typically breaks in and stretches slightly with regular wear. Try wearing them for short periods around the house to help the material conform to your foot shape.
White rubber sidewalls have scuff marks
Use a white pencil eraser or a magic sponge dampened with water to gently scrub the rubber edges until the scuffs disappear.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Extremely convenient slip-on design
- Versatile black and white aesthetic

- Lightweight and comfortable for daily walking
Cons

- Material requires regular cleaning to maintain the crisp white contrast
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these are slip-ons, there is no technical setup required. To ensure a proper fit, wear socks appropriate for the thickness you prefer, as the canvas material may relax slightly over time. For care, keep the white rubber sidewalls bright by wiping them down with a damp cloth or a specialized sneaker eraser after each use. To clean the fabric upper, use a gentle brush with mild soap and cold water, then air dry completely away from direct heat sources to prevent warping or discoloration.
