FAQs
What makes these shoes specific for skateboarding?
They feature a durable canvas upper with reinforced high-wear areas, a grippy herringbone rubber outsole for traction, and cushioning to absorb impact, all designed to withstand the demands of skateboarding.
Are these shoes suitable for everyday casual wear?
While comfortable, their design and features are optimized for skateboarding. For purely casual wear, there might be other models offering a different aesthetic or feel.
What is the significance of the 'Doyenne' collaboration?
Doyenne is a women-led skateboarding brand, design studio, collective, and inclusivity project from Glasgow. This collaboration brings their unique artistic vision and ethos to the sneaker.
How do I clean the speckled canvas upper?
Use a slightly damp cloth to gently wipe away dirt. Avoid harsh scrubbing to preserve the material and the printed details.
What is the tread pattern on the outsole?
The outsole features a herringbone pattern, which is known for providing excellent grip and traction, crucial for control on a skateboard.
What does the cloudy sky graphic represent?
The cloudy sky graphic is an artistic element from the Doyenne collaboration, adding a unique visual detail to the heel pull tab and tongue tag.
Can I replace the laces?
Yes, you can replace the laces. Skate-specific laces are recommended for enhanced durability.
Troubleshooting
Traction is reduced
Clean the rubber outsole thoroughly with a brush and water to remove dirt and debris that may be clogging the herringbone pattern.
Canvas upper feels stiff
Wear the shoes for short periods to break them in. Gentle flexing can also help soften the canvas over time.
Laces fraying quickly
Consider replacing standard laces with skate-specific laces designed for increased durability.
Discoloration on the heel tab graphic
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can cause fading. Clean gently as per care instructions.
