FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for all-day wear?
Yes, the Pro Foam 1 insole and padded collar provide sufficient comfort for all-day use.
Is the toe cap replaceable?
No, the rubber toe cap is fused to the shoe and cannot be replaced once worn down.
Can I use these for running?
While durable, these are designed as skate trainers and lack the specific motion-control features found in dedicated running footwear.
What is the best way to keep the grip clean?
Use a stiff brush to clear debris out of the flex grooves in the rubber outsole.
Does the suede stretch over time?
Suede will soften and slightly conform to your foot shape, but it should not stretch excessively if the correct size is chosen.
Are these shoes water-resistant?
While the suede and rubber provide some protection, these shoes are not waterproof and are not recommended for heavy rain.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too stiff out of the box
This is normal for cup sole designs; wear the shoes for short periods over a few days to allow the foam and suede to flex and adapt to your foot shape.
Excessive dirt on the suede
Use a specialized suede eraser or a soft-bristled brush to gently remove dry dirt; never use heavy detergents or machine wash.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Etnies Marana trainers last as long as possible, remove excess dirt after every use. For cleaning the suede upper, use a dedicated suede brush to lift surface debris; avoid soaking the shoe in water as this can damage the material and adhesives. If the shoes become damp inside, air dry them naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent the materials from warping. When lacing up, ensure the tongue is centered under the laces to prevent discomfort during use.
