FAQs
Are these shoes vegan-friendly?
The Jameson 2 Eco focuses on environmentally conscious materials, though please check the specific tag on your pair for animal-product content as materials can vary by colorway.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
It is not recommended, as heat and excessive water can compromise the glue and rubber adhesion. Hand clean only.
Are they suitable for high-impact skating?
Yes, the cupsole design is specifically chosen for its durability and impact absorption capabilities.
How do I determine my size?
The Etnies Jameson 2 Eco generally fits true to size. If you are between sizes, we recommend opting for the larger size for a more comfortable skate fit.
What does the '300 NBS' label mean?
NBS stands for National Bureau of Standards, indicating a rubber compound optimized for durability and grip on skateboard surfaces.
Troubleshooting
Stiff feel during initial wear
This is normal for cupsole shoes; wear them for a few days to break in the foam and rubber.
Surface dirt accumulation
Use a dry soft-bristle brush to maintain the finish without damaging the material.
Heel slippage
Try the 'runner's loop' lacing technique to secure the ankle collar tighter against the foot.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Etnies Jameson 2 Eco last as long as possible, follow these guidelines:
- Break-in: Wear them casually for 2-3 days to allow the internal padding to mold to your foot before attempting high-impact skating.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dried mud and dust. For deeper stains on the fabric upper, use a mild detergent mixed with water and air dry away from direct heat sources.
- Fit: These shoes typically fit true to size. Ensure the laces are tightened appropriately to lock the heel in place, preventing unnecessary friction.
- Storage: Keep your shoes in a cool, dry place to maintain the integrity of the adhesive and cushioning materials.
