Troubleshooting
Shoes feel stiff initially.
The Etnies Marana is designed for durability and may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time to allow them to mold to your feet.
Laces are wearing out quickly.
Consider using replacement laces made from a more durable material, such as waxed or reinforced laces, especially if you are frequently grinding or doing tricks that stress the laces.
Soles are becoming slippery.
Ensure the soles are clean from debris. If wear is significant, it may indicate the need for a new pair of shoes, as the tread pattern is crucial for grip, especially during skateboarding.
