FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
While the MTE construction is more durable and weather-resistant than standard models, they are not fully waterproof.
Do these run true to size?
Yes, the Vans Authentic silhouette generally fits true to your standard UK shoe size.
Can I use these for skateboarding?
While they share the iconic look of skate shoes, the MTE series is geared more toward lifestyle and urban use rather than high-impact skateboarding.
How do I clean the white accents?
Use a specialized rubber eraser or a soft cloth dipped in a mixture of baking soda and water to gently buff the white edges.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
The Authentic silhouette is relatively slim. Those with very wide feet may find them snug and might prefer sizing up by a half size.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight during the first few wears
Loosen the laces significantly and wear them for short intervals to allow the materials to break in and conform to your foot.
Visible dust or lint on the black surface
Use a standard lint roller or a dry, soft brush to gently lift surface debris.
Insole starts to feel compressed
Consider replacing the factory insoles with aftermarket arch-support insoles for a customized feel.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Vans MTE Authentic Reissue 44 trainers last as long as possible, it is recommended to treat them with a water and stain repellent spray upon unboxing. Since these shoes feature a black exterior, spot clean them using a soft-bristled brush or a damp cloth with mild soap; avoid putting them in a washing machine, as the high heat and heavy agitation can compromise the adhesive bonds. When lacing, ensure you pull the eyelets evenly to maintain the shoe's shape. Pair them with mid-weight socks for the most comfortable fit, as the interior padding is designed to mold slightly to your foot shape over time.
