FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
No, machine washing can damage the suede material and compromise the structural integrity of the shoes.
Do these Vans run true to size?
Yes, this model is designed to fit standard UK size 8 feet accurately.
How do I protect the suede from rain?
Use a specialized suede protectant spray to repel moisture, though it is best to avoid heavy rain.
Can I replace the insoles?
The insoles are generally fixed, but some users may use thin orthotic inserts if necessary.
Is the green color durable?
Yes, the dye is high quality, but keeping the shoes out of harsh, direct sunlight will prevent premature fading.
Troubleshooting
Visible dust or dry dirt on the suede
Use a dry suede brush to gently stroke the surface to lift dirt away.
Water spots or light stains
Gently rub the affected area with a suede eraser; avoid using water or soap.
Shoe feels too tight initially
Suede will naturally soften and mold to your foot shape after a few days of consistent wear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longest lifespan for your Vans, follow these care guidelines:

- Cleaning: Use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt and restore the "nap" of the material. Avoid soaking the shoes in water.
- Stain Removal: For minor stains, use a suede eraser. For deeper cleaning, consult a professional shoe cleaner rather than using a washing machine.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the green dye from fading.
- Compatibility: These trainers are designed for standard adult foot shapes and fit true to size. Ensure you wear appropriate socks to manage moisture within the shoe.
