What is the benefit of the herringbone tread pattern?

Troubleshooting

Traction feels reduced

Clean the herringbone tread pattern with a brush to remove any embedded dirt or debris that may be affecting grip.

Suede appears dirty or stained

Use a dedicated suede brush for dry dirt. For stubborn stains, use a suede cleaner or a slightly damp cloth, testing on an inconspicuous area first. Allow to air dry completely.

Laces fraying or breaking

Replace laces with standard skate shoe laces. Consider durable waxed laces for longer wear.

Cushioning feels less responsive over time

The Zoom Air unit is designed for durability, but extreme use can lead to reduced responsiveness. Regular cleaning and proper storage can help maintain performance.

Compatibility: Designed primarily for skateboarding. While suitable for casual wear, their construction is optimized for the demands of the sport.
