FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Yes, the Vans Old Skool 36 generally fits true to size. If you have particularly wide feet, you may prefer a half-size up for extra comfort.

Are these suitable for professional sports?

While durable, these are lifestyle trainers designed for casual use rather than specialized athletic training.

Can I put these in the washing machine?

It is not recommended to machine wash these shoes, as the heat and agitation can damage the pearlescent finish and the adhesive bond between the sole and the upper.

What is the primary material used for the upper?

The upper is constructed from premium fabric, often featuring a blend that supports the unique pearlescent application.

Is the sole non-slip?

The signature waffle tread provides excellent grip on most indoor and outdoor surfaces, though it is not rated as a non-slip safety shoe.

Troubleshooting

Difficulty putting the shoes on initially

Loosen the laces down to the toe box to allow for wider foot entry during the initial break-in period.

Surface dirt on white sections

Use a specialized sneaker cleaning foam or a mixture of gentle detergent and warm water with a soft cloth.

Slight stiffness in the heel area

Wear the shoes for short durations inside the home to allow the heel counter to mold to your foot shape.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Distinctive and eye-catching aesthetic with a pearlescent finish
  • Time-tested Old Skool design offers reliable comfort
  • Versatile enough for casual wear or elevated street style
  • Sturdy construction ensures long-term durability

Cons

  • Light-colored uppers are susceptible to dirt and stains
  • Limited to specific color palettes which may not match all outfits
  • May require a short break-in period for the canvas and heel counter

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because these trainers are made from high-quality materials including canvas and rubber, proper care is essential to keep the pearlescent finish looking sharp.

  1. Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush or a clean cloth with mild soapy water to spot-clean the white upper. Avoid harsh chemicals that may degrade the pearlescent treatment.
  2. Maintenance: To protect the material from initial staining, apply a water and stain repellent spray suitable for canvas.
  3. Drying: Always air dry at room temperature away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can warp the rubber or cause the fabric to become brittle.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place to maintain the integrity of the adhesive and fabric dyes.
