FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, they generally fit true to size. If you have wide feet, you may find the initial fit slightly snug before the material relaxes.
Can I replace the insoles?
The factory insoles are secure, but they can be removed if you wish to insert your own custom orthotics.
Is the beige material suede or canvas?
The Old Skool 36 typically features a mix of durable canvas and suede panels to balance breathability and reinforcement.
Can I wash these in the washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash your Vans, as this can damage the adhesives and cause the materials to warp.
Are these suitable for long-distance walking?
While durable, they do not feature high-tech arch support, so they are better suited for casual wear than long-distance endurance walking.
Troubleshooting
The shoe feels too tight at the sides.
Loosen the laces significantly before putting the shoe on and wear them for short periods at home to allow the canvas and suede to break in.
Surface marks on the beige material.
Use a dry suede eraser or a soft-bristle brush to gently lift dirt without using excess water, which may cause staining.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
For the best fit, ensure you are wearing socks of the thickness you intend to use daily when trying on your size 12 pair. To maintain the beige aesthetic, it is recommended to apply a water and stain repellent spray before first use. To clean, use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dirt and a damp cloth with mild soap for localized spots; avoid machine washing to preserve the structural integrity of the canvas and suede components.
