Bending your shoes to help break them in
Q. Why are my vans ripping?
All Vans are constructed through a unique vulcanization process where shoe components are welded together using heat. As a result, rubber foxing is vulcanized to the rubber sole of the shoe and melt-welded to the canvas uppers. With extended use, the sole of your Vans may split away from the canvas uppers.
