FAQs
Are these shoes vegan-friendly?
Etnies focuses on eco-conscious materials, but please check the specific material label on the box to confirm if animal products were used in the production of your specific batch.
Can I use these for long-distance running?
No, these are skate trainers. They are designed for board control and lifestyle use, not for the high-impact repetitive motion required for long-distance running.
How do I clean the white midsole?
Use a magic eraser or a damp cloth with mild soap to scrub the rubber sidewalls, then immediately dry them with a paper towel.
Does the sizing run large or small?
The Jameson 2 Eco generally fits true to size for standard adult foot widths.
Why is it called 'Destruct Wash'?
This refers to the specific wash process applied to the material to give it a worn-in, distressed aesthetic from the moment you purchase it.
Troubleshooting
Footbed feels stiff after initial wear
The EVA insole needs to mold to your foot shape; wear them for shorter periods during the first week to allow the foam to break in.
Laces coming undone frequently
The padding in the tongue can create extra tension; try using a double knot or replacing the stock laces with flat, textured skate laces for better grip.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These trainers are ready for use immediately upon unboxing. To maintain the structural integrity of the rubber outsole and the longevity of the canvas-style upper, avoid machine washing. Instead, spot clean with a soft-bristled brush and mild soap to remove dirt. Ensure the shoes are kept in a dry, cool place to prevent the breakdown of the EVA cushioning. Since the fit is true-to-size, standard cotton or skate-specific socks are recommended to ensure proper moisture management inside the padded collar.
