FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for everyday walking?

Yes, while designed for skating, the POPCUSH cushioning makes them very comfortable for all-day casual wear.

Do I need to break these in?

Because of the advanced construction and reinforced materials, they may feel stiff at first, but will conform to your feet after a few days of use.

How do I clean the checkerboard pattern?

Use a soft brush and a mixture of mild soap and water. Scrub gently to avoid damaging the canvas material.

Can I replace the insoles?

The POPCUSH insoles are designed for this specific model for optimal performance, but they are removable if you need to air them out or use custom orthotics.

Do these slip off during tricks?

No, the locked-in tongue straps and molded heel counter are specifically engineered to keep the shoe secure on your foot during flick maneuvers.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight initially

The internal tongue straps and molded heel counter provide a locked-in fit. Wear them for a few sessions to allow the materials to break in and conform to your foot shape.

Reduced grip on the board

Check the soles for debris or heavy dust accumulation. Wipe the outsoles with a damp cloth and let them air dry to restore the SICKSTICK grip.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent boardfeel due to the two-part foxing design
  • High-impact cushioning protects joints during sessions
  • Reinforced construction significantly improves durability
  • Classic checkerboard aesthetic suitable for both skating and casual wear

Cons

  • Slightly stiffer feel than casual canvas slip-ons
  • May require a short break-in period to achieve optimal comfort
  • Fit is performance-oriented and may feel snug for some users

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For the best experience, ensure you select your standard UK sizing, keeping in mind the 'locked-in' fit design. To maintain the life of your shoes, avoid machine washing; instead, spot clean with a soft brush and mild soap to preserve the structural integrity of the reinforced materials. If you notice the traction beginning to fade after heavy sessions, wiping the outsoles with a slightly damp cloth can help remove dust and restore the grip provided by the rubber compound.
