FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Yes, the Vans Ward series typically fits true to standard UK junior sizing.

Can I put these shoes in the dryer?

No, high heat from a dryer can damage the glue and warp the rubber soles. Always air dry your shoes away from direct heat sources.

Is the suede real leather?

Yes, the Vans Ward utilizes suede leather for the upper construction, providing durability and a premium texture.

Can these be used for actual skateboarding?

Absolutely. With their reinforced toecaps and grippy waffle outsoles, they are built to handle the demands of skateboarding.

How do I remove mud from the canvas?

Let the mud dry completely first, then brush it off with a soft brush. If stains remain, spot clean with cold water and mild detergent.

Troubleshooting

White rubber sidewalls have become scuffed

Use a specialized rubber cleaner or a melamine sponge dampened with water to gently scrub the white rubber parts.

Laces constantly coming untied

Replace the standard cotton laces with waxed laces or tie a double knot to increase friction and security.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Vans Ward shoes last, treat the suede areas with a protectant spray before the first use. For cleaning, use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt from the suede, and wipe down the canvas and rubber sidewalls with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid putting these shoes in the washing machine, as the heat and agitation can degrade the adhesive and damage the suede texture. Ensure you store them in a cool, dry place to prevent material breakdown.
