FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for everyday walking?

While the Nike SB PS8 is comfortable, it is specifically engineered for skateboarding performance and may lack the arch support of dedicated running shoes.

What is the primary material of the upper?

The Nike SB PS8 utilizes high-quality leather, designed to provide both durability during flick tricks and a premium feel.

How should I store these trainers?

Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent leather drying and color fading.

Can I use these for other sports?

The shoe is optimized for the specific foot movements of skateboarding. Using them for sports like basketball or tennis is not recommended.

Is the sole designed to be non-marking?

Yes, the skate-specific rubber compound is designed for high grip and durability, which is typically safe for indoor and outdoor skate surfaces.

Troubleshooting

Visible scuffs or marks on the upper

Gently clean the affected leather area with a soft-bristled brush or a damp cloth using mild soap.

Midsole appearing clouded or dirty

Clean the clear rubber midsole with a dedicated sneaker cleaning solution and a soft cloth to restore clarity.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Nike SB PS8 trainers, avoid machine washing, which can compromise the structural integrity of the upper and sole. Instead, wipe the surface with a damp, soft cloth to remove dirt. Ensure the shoes are completely dry before storing them, and avoid direct exposure to heat sources. The leather components should be cleaned with specialized leather cleaners to maintain the finish. For the best fit, ensure you select your standard UK size, as the silhouette is designed to provide a secure, locked-in feel suited for high-impact activity.
