Care Instructions:
Proper care is essential to extend the life and maintain the appearance of your Vans Old Skool trainers, particularly due to the suede and canvas materials.
Spot Cleaning: For light dirt and smudges, use a soft brush or a clean, damp cloth.
Suede Care: For suede areas, use a dedicated suede brush to remove loose dirt. For tougher stains, a suede cleaner specifically designed for footwear can be applied. Always brush the suede in one direction to maintain its nap.
Canvas Care: For canvas areas, a mild soap solution (like dish soap diluted in water) can be used with a soft brush or cloth. Gently scrub the affected area.
Cleaning the Side Stripe: The iconic white rubber side stripe can be cleaned with a mild soap solution and a soft brush or cloth to remove scuffs and dirt.
Drying: Always air dry your trainers away from direct sunlight or artificial heat sources. Do not tumble dry, as this can damage the materials and adhesives.
Avoid Machine Washing: Machine washing is not recommended as it can cause damage to the shoe's structure, materials, and color.
Protection: Consider using a water and stain repellent spray suitable for both suede and canvas to add an extra layer of protection against the elements and spills.
