FAQs
Are these trainers waterproof?
No, they are made of suede, which is porous. While a protector spray can help repel light moisture, they should not be submerged in water.
Do these shoes run true to size?
Yes, the VANS Brooklyn series typically fits true to standard adult sizing.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash suede trainers, as water and detergent can damage the material and cause shrinkage or discoloration.
Are these suitable for running?
No, these are lifestyle trainers intended for casual wear, not for running or high-impact athletic training.
What should I do if the suede gets wet?
Stuff the shoes with newspaper to help them maintain their shape and absorb moisture, then allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources.
Troubleshooting
Suede looks dull or flat
Use a soft suede brush to gently lift the fibers in one direction, restoring the texture.
Dirt stains on the upper
Allow the mud to dry completely, then gently brush away. Use a specialized suede cleaner if the stain persists.
Sole grip is reduced
Check the outsole for trapped debris or pebbles, and clean with a damp cloth to restore traction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your VANS Brooklyn Trainers last, avoid exposure to heavy rain or muddy conditions, as suede is absorbent and difficult to clean once saturated.

- Cleaning: Use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt and revitalize the nap of the fabric. For stubborn marks, use a suede eraser.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading.
