Full details

FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, the Vans Old Skool generally fits true to standard adult sizing.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
It is not recommended, as the machine agitation and water can damage the suede and the structural integrity of the rubber bonding.
Are these suitable for long-distance running?
No, these are fashion trainers designed for casual wear and are not engineered with the cushioning required for high-impact running.
How do I protect the blue color?
Apply a water and stain repellent spray specifically formulated for suede before your first use.
Are these considered unisex?
The Old Skool series is widely considered unisex, though sizes are categorized by adult UK standards.
Troubleshooting
Suede looks dull or dusty after extended use
Use a specialized suede brush to lift the nap and remove trapped dust particles.
Heel slippage when walking
Try the 'runner's loop' lacing technique to increase tension around the ankle collar for a tighter fit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Vans remain in top condition, keep them away from heavy mud or prolonged wet conditions as the blue suede can bleed or stain. To clean, use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dust. For minor marks, a suede eraser works best—avoid submerging them in water, as this can degrade the glue and the texture of the suede. If the laces lose their shape, they are easily replaceable with standard flat athletic laces.
