FAQs

Are Vans Ward trainers good for walking long distances?

While comfortable for everyday wear and moderate walking, Vans Ward trainers may not provide sufficient cushioning or arch support for very long distances or strenuous walking compared to dedicated walking shoes.

What material are the Vans Ward trainers made of?

The materials can vary by specific model. Some Vans Ward trainers are made of canvas, while others feature suede or leather uppers. The description provided for the Red/White model does not specify a material, suggesting it could be a common canvas or synthetic blend suitable for everyday wear.

How do I know if I have the right size?

Refer to the sizing chart and ensure there is a comfortable amount of space at the toe and heel. The shoe should feel snug but not constricting, with the lace-up system allowing for adjustment.

Can I wash my Vans Ward trainers in a washing machine?

It is generally not recommended to machine wash Vans trainers, as this can damage the adhesives, materials, and shape of the shoe. Spot cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap is the preferred method.

What is the difference between Vans Ward and Old Skool?

The Vans Ward is directly inspired by the classic Old Skool model. They share many design elements, including the low-top silhouette and side stripe. Minor variations might exist in construction or subtle design details depending on the specific release.

Do these trainers offer good ankle support?

The Vans Ward features a padded collar for comfort around the ankle, but they are a low-top shoe and do not offer significant ankle support for activities that require it.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring they are not overtightened. If still tight, consider wearing thinner socks or breaking them in with shorter wear periods.

Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces

Ensure the soles are clean and free from debris. The vulcanized rubber can sometimes be less grippy on very smooth or wet surfaces compared to specialized traction patterns.

Discoloration or staining

For minor spots, use a damp cloth with mild soap. For tougher stains, a specialized shoe cleaner for the material (e.g., suede cleaner) may be required. Always test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first.

Laces fraying

Replace the laces with a new pair of standard shoelaces of a similar length and thickness. Vans offers replacement laces.
