FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for beginners?

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the Etnies sizing chart and measure your child's foot for the most accurate fit. The size listed is the UK children's foot size.

What is the STI Comfort Level 1 insole?

STI refers to 'Scenario Technology Integrated', and Level 1 is a basic cushioning system designed to provide comfort and absorb moderate impact.

Can these shoes be worn for sports other than skateboarding?

While optimized for skateboarding, they can be worn for general active play due to their comfort and durable construction.

How do I clean the black rubber toe cap?

The rubber toe cap can be cleaned with a damp cloth. For stubborn marks, a soft brush and mild soap can be used, followed by rinsing with a damp cloth.

What is the benefit of the deep flex grooves in the outsole?

The deep flex grooves enhance the flexibility of the sole, allowing for a more natural foot movement and improving grip on various surfaces.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel stiff or uncomfortable initially

Wear the shoes for short periods to break them in. Gentle flexing and wearing them around the house can help speed up the process.

Laces coming undone frequently

Ensure laces are tied securely. Utilize the hidden lace loops to keep laces tucked away and prevent them from loosening.

Outsole grip is reduced

Clean the outsole with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris that may be affecting traction.

Toe cap shows signs of excessive wear

While designed for durability, aggressive skating can lead to wear. Ensure proper skating technique to maximize the lifespan of the reinforced toe cap.
