FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, as water can damage the adhesives and suede materials. Hand-cleaning is the safest method.
Do these shoes fit true to size?
Yes, Vans Old Skool models generally fit true to standard sizing, though individual preferences for sock thickness may vary.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
The Old Skool silhouette has a relatively slim profile. If you have wide feet, you may prefer loosening the laces significantly or trying a half-size larger.
Can I use these for skateboarding?
While based on skate shoe designs, the Souvenir line is largely lifestyle-focused. For heavy-duty skating, look for Pro versions with extra reinforcement.
How do I protect the beige fabric from stains?
Applying a water and stain repellent spray suitable for suede and textile materials before the first wear can help protect against minor spills.
Troubleshooting
Laces coming undone frequently
Replace standard laces with higher-friction cotton laces or double-knot during active play.
Surface scuff marks on beige material
Use a suede eraser or a dedicated dry-cleaning sponge to gently lift scuffs without wetting the fabric.
Reduced grip on smooth surfaces
Wipe the rubber waffle soles with a damp cloth to remove accumulated dust and debris.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These trainers are ready to wear straight out of the box, though you should ensure the laces are adjusted to your preferred tension for a secure fit. Since these feature specific material textures, avoid submerging them in water or using harsh detergents. Use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dust regularly. For deeper cleans, use a specialized shoe cleaning solution suitable for suede and textiles, and always air-dry them away from direct heat sources to prevent material deformation or discolouration.
