FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard sizing; however, the padded collar and tongue offer a snug fit, so ensure you choose your usual size.
Can I wash these in a washing machine?
No, machine washing can destroy the integrity of the suede and the internal adhesive; spot cleaning is recommended.
What is 400 NBS rubber?
NBS stands for National Bureau of Standards, indicating a high-density rubber compound designed specifically for increased abrasion resistance and grip.
Is the footbed removable?
The STI Foam Lite Level 1 footbed is designed to provide optimal support as integrated, but can be removed if you require custom orthotics.
Are these suitable for wet weather?
While they feature durable materials, suede is sensitive to moisture, so it is best to avoid heavy rain or puddles to maintain the shoe's appearance.
Troubleshooting
Tongue shifting while walking or skating
Ensure the internal elastic tongue straps are pulled taut and are not twisted beneath the laces.
Surface dirt on suede upper
Use a dry suede brush to lift the nap and dislodge debris; do not use heavy liquid cleaners.
Reduced grip on outsole
Wipe the bottom of the rubber outsole with a damp cloth to remove compacted dust or road grime.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Etnies Lo-Cut 2K shoes last, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Cleaning: Use a specialized suede brush to remove dirt and dust. Avoid water immersion, as it can damage the suede texture.
- Stain Removal: For stubborn stains, use a suede eraser or a small amount of white vinegar on a soft cloth, blotting gently.
- Protection: Apply a suede-safe water and stain repellent spray prior to first use to protect against environmental wear.
- Storage: Keep shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading and rubber degradation.
