FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?
No, the Etnies Scout Trainers are designed for casual wear and light activities. They lack the specialized support and cushioning required for long-distance running like marathons.
Can I put these trainers in the washing machine?
We strongly advise against machine washing or drying your Etnies Scout Trainers. This can damage the materials, adhesives, and overall structure of the shoe. Hand-clean with a damp cloth and mild soap as needed.
How do I activate the 'drop-top' heel feature?
The elastic heel support allows you to push the heel down with your hand or foot to convert the trainer into a slip-on style. To return to a traditional trainer, simply pull the heel back up.
What is the primary benefit of the STI Evolution foam outsole?
The STI Evolution foam outsole is exceptionally lightweight, durable, and provides excellent shock absorption, contributing to the overall comfort and longevity of the trainers.
Are these trainers waterproof?
The Etnies Scout Trainers are not waterproof. They are made from polyester and are best suited for dry conditions. Exposure to heavy rain may saturate the material.
What type of foot support do these trainers offer?
These trainers feature a Foam Lite 1 insole for cushioning and comfort, and a flexible STI Evolution foam outsole. They provide good support for casual wear but are not designed for advanced arch support or correction.
Troubleshooting
Trainers feel too tight or uncomfortable
Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. The flexible lycra lining and foam insole may take a short period to mold to your foot. Wear them for short periods initially to break them in.
Reduced traction on surfaces
Check the rubber pods on the outsole for excessive wear or debris. Clean the pods with a damp cloth. If the pods are significantly worn, replacement may be necessary.
Heel collapses unintentionally
The elastic heel support is designed for intentional drop-top access. If it is collapsing without deliberate pressure, check for any damage to the elastic material. Gentle wear is recommended to preserve this feature.
Difficulty removing trainers
Ensure the drop-top heel feature is fully engaged (folded down) if you prefer a slip-on style. If not, use the heel tab to assist in removal without forcing the shoe.
