FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for beginner skaters?
Yes, the durable construction, protective toe cap, and good grip make them a solid choice for beginner skaters.
How do I know if I'm ordering the correct size?
Refer to the size chart provided by the retailer and measure your child's foot length. The size listed is the UK children's foot size.
Can these shoes be used for running?
While they offer good cushioning, they are primarily designed for skateboarding and casual wear. For dedicated running, specialized running shoes are recommended.
What is the 'STI Comfort Level 1' insole?
This refers to Etnies' own cushioning technology, providing a basic level of comfort and impact absorption for everyday use.
How do the hidden lace loops work?
These are small loops integrated into the tongue or upper of the shoe designed to tuck your laces into, keeping them out of the way and protected.
What is the main difference between the Marana and other Etnies models?
The Marana line is known for its exceptional durability, often featuring a reinforced toe cap and a more robust sole, making it ideal for skateboarding.
Can these shoes be worn in wet conditions?
The materials are not waterproof. While they can handle light moisture, they are not designed for heavy rain or puddles. Allow them to dry thoroughly if they get wet.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure you have selected the correct size. If still tight after trying them on, wear with thinner socks or consider if the shoe's width is suitable for your foot.
Tread appears worn quickly
Check for abrasive surfaces where the shoes are used. Skateboarding can cause faster wear; ensure proper technique to minimize excessive friction on the sole.
Laces fraying or breaking
Use the hidden lace loops to secure laces and prevent them from catching on objects. Consider using more durable replacement laces if this is a frequent issue.
