FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for serious skateboarding?
The Vans Old Skool is a classic skate shoe and offers decent performance for casual skateboarding. For more intense or professional skateboarding, dedicated skate shoes with enhanced features might be preferred.
How do I determine the correct UK size?
Refer to the Vans size guide, which typically provides a conversion chart from UK sizes to US sizes and centimeter measurements. It's also helpful to read reviews regarding sizing for this specific model.
Can I wash these in a washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash Vans Old Skool shoes. Machine washing can damage the adhesives, materials, and shape of the shoe. Hand washing is the preferred method.
What does 'Color Theory' mean in this collection?
'Color Theory' refers to a collection by Vans that focuses on offering a spectrum of iconic colorways, providing a fresh perspective on their classic silhouettes.
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, the Vans Old Skool 'Duck Green' is made primarily from canvas and suede/leather (depending on specific parts), which are not waterproof materials. They offer minimal resistance to water.
What is the difference between this model and other Old Skool versions?
The primary difference is the colorway ('Duck Green') and its inclusion in the 'Color Theory' collection. The core design and construction remain consistent with the classic Old Skool model.
Troubleshooting
Soles feel stiff initially
This is common with new shoes. Wear them for short periods indoors to gradually break them in. Flexibility will improve with use.
Canvas material appears stained
Use a specialized shoe cleaner for canvas or a mixture of mild soap and water with a soft brush. Test on an inconspicuous area first. Rinse gently and air dry.
Laces are difficult to tie securely
Ensure the laces are threaded through all eyelets evenly. Consider replacing the laces with a different material or texture if they are too slippery.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: The Vans Old Skool 'Color Theory - Duck Green' is designed for adults and is suitable for both male and unisex wear. It's compatible with a wide range of casual apparel.
Care:
- Cleaning: For minor dirt, use a soft brush or a damp cloth to gently clean the canvas and rubber parts. Avoid soaking the shoes.
- Drying: If shoes get wet, stuff them with paper or a towel and let them air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the materials.
- Protection: Consider using a protective spray designed for canvas and suede (if applicable to specific parts of the shoe) to help repel water and stains. Reapply periodically.
