FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for professional skating?

Yes, the Etnies Kingpin 2K features reinforced construction and 400 NBS rubber specifically designed to withstand the rigors of skateboarding.

How do I ensure I pick the right size?

These follow standard UK sizing. If you prefer a looser fit or plan to wear thicker socks, consider that the internal padding is dense and may feel snug.

Can I replace the insoles?

Yes, the comfort level 1 insoles can be removed and replaced with custom orthotics if required.

What is the primary material used?

The shoe features a mix of durable materials including a 400 NBS rubber outsole and cushioned EVA internals designed for high-impact use.

How should I clean my Etnies Kingpin 2K trainers?

Use a dry or slightly damp brush to remove surface dirt. Avoid submerging the shoes in water.

Troubleshooting

The shoe feels too tight out of the box

The padding in the tongue and collar is substantial. Wear the shoes for short periods indoors to allow the materials to conform to your foot shape.

Outsole losing traction

Check the outsole for dirt, debris, or wax buildup. Wipe the surface with a damp cloth to restore grip.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent durability due to 400 NBS rubber construction
  • High level of impact cushioning via EVA midsole
  • Padded design offers significant ankle stability
  • Versatile aesthetic suitable for skating and casual use

Cons

  • Padded design may feel bulky compared to minimal trainers
  • Materials require break-in period for optimal comfort
  • Heavier profile than performance running shoes

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because these are standard lace-up trainers, no complex setup is required; ensure laces are tightened comfortably for the best fit. For care, keep the shoes away from heavy moisture to protect the materials. If they become dirty, spot-clean them using a soft brush and mild soap. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as this can compromise the adhesives and the integrity of the padded collar and tongue.
