FAQs

Are these shoes waterproof?

No, they are made of cotton and are not waterproof. They are designed for casual dry-weather use.

Can I use these for skating?

While rooted in skate culture, this specific Reissue 44 model is primarily designed as a lifestyle and fashion trainer.

How do I ensure I have the right size?

Vans generally run true to size; we recommend ordering your standard athletic shoe size.

Are the insoles removable?

Yes, the standard insoles in this model are generally removable if you need to insert your own custom orthotics.

How should I store them when not in use?

Keep them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the black color from fading.

Troubleshooting

White soles getting dirty

Use a specialized rubber cleaner or a mixture of baking soda and water applied with an old toothbrush to restore the white finish.

Feeling too tight initially

Loosen the laces significantly to relieve pressure on the midfoot; the cotton upper will naturally stretch slightly with continued use.

Fabric staining

Apply a textile-safe water and stain repellent spray before first use to create a protective barrier against everyday spills.

Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Vans MTE Authentic Reissue 44 trainers remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:

  1. Break-in Period: Like most canvas-style trainers, allow for a few days of light wear to let the material conform to your foot.
  2. Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt. For deeper stains, spot-clean with cold water and mild soap. Avoid machine washing to prevent structural damage to the adhesive.
  3. Drying: Always air-dry at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or heat sources like radiators, which can warp the rubber soles and fade the fabric.
  4. Compatibility: These trainers feature a neutral black-and-white color palette, making them compatible with almost any denim, chino, or short combination.
