Etnies Fader Skate Shoes - White/Black - UK 10

The description does not specify width sizing. It is recommended to try them on or check for reviews regarding fit for wider feet, as skate shoes can sometimes have a moderate fit.

The Etnies Fader Skate Shoes are designed primarily for skateboarding, offering durability and cushioning. They are also suitable for general casual wear.

Use a soft brush to remove dry dirt. For tougher stains, use a damp cloth with a mild soap solution. Allow them to air dry completely. Avoid machine washing or harsh chemicals.

NBS refers to the National Bureau of Standards. A 300 rating indicates a type of rubber compound known for its durability and abrasion resistance, commonly used in shoe outsoles.

Etnies has a commitment to the environment and has planted over 2.3 million trees with community support.

While the Lite Foam insole is integrated for cushioning, it is often removable in most trainers. You can typically remove it to insert custom orthotics if needed, though this may affect the shoe's original feel.

The lifespan varies greatly depending on the frequency and intensity of skating. The durable 300 NBS rubber sole and robust construction are designed to withstand regular use, but heavy skateboarding will naturally lead to wear over time.

Loosen the laces and ensure your foot is positioned correctly. If still too tight, consider if this is the correct size or if a break-in period is needed.

Clean the 300 NBS rubber sole with a damp cloth to remove any accumulated dirt or debris that might be affecting grip.

Ensure the insole is properly seated. If discomfort persists, consider if the Lite Foam cushioning meets your personal preference. These shoes are designed for specific support.

Ensure the shoes are being used for their intended purpose. Skateboarding can cause rapid wear; inspect for specific areas of abrasion and consider protective measures if needed.
