FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for professional skateboarding?
Yes, the inclusion of Super Rubber with the Pill Pattern and the TPR stabilizer makes them durable enough for technical street skating.
Can I remove the hook-and-loop strap permanently?
The strap is designed to be removable, so you can take it off if you prefer a cleaner, lace-only look.
Are the insoles replaceable?
The PU insole is designed for maximum comfort but can be removed if you prefer to use your own custom orthotic inserts.
How do I maintain the suede panels?
Use a suede-specific brush to gently lift dirt and keep the nap looking fresh. Avoid water exposure to prevent staining.
What is the primary material used in the upper?
The shoes are constructed using premium leather, with some models incorporating suede panels for added texture and durability.
Troubleshooting
Strap not staying secure
Clean the hook-and-loop fabric with a fine-toothed comb to remove lint or debris that prevents the grip.
Outsole losing grip
Wipe the Super Rubber sole with a damp cloth to remove accumulated dust or dirt.
General fit is too tight
Adjust the lacing pattern and ensure the removable strap is not over-tightened before finalizing the fit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your JS 1 shoes last, verify the fit using the removable strap to adjust tension across the midfoot. Because the construction involves leather and suede, avoid machine washing these shoes. Instead, spot clean with a soft-bristled brush or a dedicated leather cleaner to remove debris. If the shoes become wet, air dry them at room temperature away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can cause the leather to crack or the glue to degrade. Check the TPU eyelets periodically to ensure no debris is trapped inside that could cause friction against the laces.
