Product Information
Full details
These Vans Ward trainers are designed for kids who need durable, stylish footwear for everyday activities. The key benefit is their classic Vans aesthetic combined with practical features for easy wear. A potential consideration is that the vibrant colour may show dirt more readily than darker shades. Key features include the iconic Sidestripe, elastic lace closure, and a heel pull tab for simple on and off, all built with vulcanized construction and the Original Waffle Outsole for reliable grip and longevity.

Troubleshooting
Elastic laces seem loose
The elastic laces are designed for slip-on ease and may not provide a tight, traditional fit. If a tighter fit is desired, consider replacing them with standard shoelaces. Ensure the heel tab and elastic laces are correctly positioned for optimal fit.
Tread appears worn quickly
The Original Waffle Outsole is designed for grip. If excessive wear is observed, ensure the child is not dragging their feet excessively during walking. Consistent wear on abrasive surfaces can impact tread longevity.
Discoloration on the pink material
The vibrant 'Glow Vans Neon Pink' colour can be susceptible to showing dirt. Regular spot cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap is recommended. Avoid exposing the shoes to substances that may cause staining.
