FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for beginners?
Yes, the Etnies Marana offers great durability and support, making them a solid choice for beginner skaters who need a shoe that can withstand learning new tricks.
How do I know if I'm choosing the right size?
Refer to the size chart provided by Etnies and measure your child's foot. The specified UK size (3 UK) is based on standard measurements for children's footwear.
Can these be worn for sports other than skateboarding?
Absolutely. Their supportive design and comfortable cushioning make them suitable for various athletic activities and general everyday wear.
What makes the Marana particularly durable?
The durability comes from the action nubuck upper, reinforced rubber toe cap, and the robust 400NBS rubber outsole designed to resist abrasion.
How do the hidden lace-loops work?
These are small fabric loops integrated into the tongue area. You can thread your laces through them for added security, preventing laces from snagging or coming undone during activity.
Is there a specific way to clean the nubuck material?
It's best to use a damp cloth for general cleaning. For tougher spots, a specialized nubuck cleaner or a soft brush can be used, but always test on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid soaking the shoes.
What is the 'Pro 1 polyurethane footbed'?
This is an insole made of polyurethane, designed to provide cushioning and shock absorption, enhancing comfort and reducing impact on the feet.
Troubleshooting
Laces keep coming undone.
Utilize the hidden lace-loops for a more secure fit, or consider using lace locks.
Sole feels stiff initially.
This is normal for durable skate shoes. Wear them for short periods to break them in gradually. Flexing the shoe by hand can also help.
Minor scuffs on the toe cap.
Wipe gently with a damp cloth. Minor scuffs are expected wear and tear for a skate shoe, especially on the reinforced toe.
