Gently clean the canvas upper with a mixture of mild soap and cool water, using a soft brush or cloth. Avoid harsh scrubbing or machine washing. Rinse with a damp cloth and air dry completely.
While the waffle sole offers maximum traction, new soles can sometimes be a bit stiff. Wear them in on varied surfaces. Ensure the soles are clean from debris that might reduce grip.
Ensure you are tying a proper square knot. You might also consider double-knotting if you engage in active use, or replacing laces if they are old and worn out.

Using your Vans Authentic trainers is straightforward. Simply slide your foot in, adjust the laces for a comfortable and secure fit, and tie them. The padded collar and footbed will conform to your foot over time for personalized comfort.
