FAQs
What age group are these shoes designed for?
These shoes are designed for kids and young skaters.
What is the main benefit of the rubber printed toe cap?
The rubber printed toe cap significantly increases the durability of the shoe in the high-wear area of the toe, which is crucial for skateboarding tricks.
How do I clean these trainers?
Wipe them clean with a damp cloth. Avoid machine washing and allow them to air dry.
Are these shoes suitable for everyday wear?
Yes, they offer comfort for everyday activities due to the insole and padding, but their design is optimized for skateboarding performance.
What does 'STI Comfort Level 1' mean?
STI stands for 'Standard Technology Incorporated,' and Level 1 refers to a specific cushioning and comfort standard provided by the insole.
Can these shoes be used for other sports?
While they offer good grip and support, they are specifically designed with skateboarding features in mind. For other sports, footwear tailored to those activities might be more suitable.
What does the '13C UK' size refer to?
This refers to a children's UK size 13, often indicating a larger size within the children's range or an early youth size.
Troubleshooting
Laces keep coming undone
Ensure laces are tied securely. Utilize the hidden lace loops to keep them tucked away and prevent loosening during activity.
Reduced grip on the board
Check the sole for excessive dirt or debris buildup. Clean the sole with a damp cloth or a soft brush. If the tread is significantly worn, it may be time for a new pair.
Foot discomfort after skating
Ensure the correct size is being worn. The STI Comfort Level 1 insole provides cushioning, but break-in time may be required for new shoes. Check that the padding around the tongue and collar is properly positioned.
