FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for professional skateboarding?
Yes, Etnies is a skateboarder-owned brand, and the Fader series is designed with skateboarding performance and durability in mind.
How do I determine the correct UK size?
Refer to standard UK sizing charts for men's footwear. It is recommended to try them on if possible, as fit can vary between individuals.
What is the sustainability initiative mentioned?
Etnies is committed to planting over 2.3 million trees with community support as part of their environmental efforts.
Can these trainers be worn in wet conditions?
While durable, these trainers are not designed as waterproof footwear. They can handle light moisture, but prolonged exposure to heavy rain is not recommended.
What materials are used in the Blue/Brown Fader trainers?
The specific materials for this colorway include a combination of suede and other durable textiles suitable for skateboarding.
How often should I clean my Etnies Fader Trainers?
Clean your trainers as needed, especially after skateboarding sessions or when they appear dirty, to maintain their appearance and performance.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight initially
This is common with new, durable footwear. Wear them for short periods to break them in, or consider using thicker socks during the initial wear to gently stretch the material.
Laces are difficult to keep tied
Replace the laces with a pair that has better grip or use a double-knotting technique. Ensure laces are dry, as wet laces can become slippery.
Tread shows rapid wear
Ensure you are using the shoes for their intended purpose (skateboarding/casual wear) and not for abrasive activities. Clean the soles regularly to maintain grip and reduce wear.
