FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for toddlers?
This specific model is listed for kids with a UK size 2. While Etnies offers a Marana range for toddlers, please verify the size and age suitability for younger children.
How durable is the rubber toe cap?
The rubber printed toe cap is designed to be durable and resist abrasion from skateboarding tricks and general wear, significantly extending the shoe's lifespan in this critical area.
Can I remove the insole?
Yes, the STI Comfort Level 1 insole is typically removable, allowing for cleaning or the insertion of custom orthotics if needed.
What is the best way to clean these shoes?
Wipe with a damp cloth for general cleaning. For tougher dirt, use a mild soap and water solution with a soft brush, followed by a rinse with a damp cloth. Always air dry.
Are the hidden lace loops effective?
Yes, the hidden lace loops are designed to keep laces tucked away securely, preventing them from snagging or getting in the way during activity.
What kind of tread does the outsole have?
The outsole features a durable tyre tread pattern with deep flex grooves, providing excellent grip and flexibility.
Is this shoe water-resistant?
These shoes are not designed to be water-resistant. While they can handle light moisture, they are not suitable for prolonged exposure to wet conditions.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Loosen the laces and re-tie, ensuring they are not overtightened. Check the size against a foot measurement if persistent discomfort occurs.
Laces come undone frequently
Utilize the hidden lace loops to secure them. Consider double-knotting the laces if they are particularly long.
Reduced grip on surfaces
Ensure the outsole is clean and free from excessive dirt or debris. The tread pattern may wear down over time, affecting grip.
Discoloration or scuff marks
Wipe with a damp cloth. For persistent marks, use a mild cleaner specifically designed for footwear materials. The rubber toe cap is designed to resist scuffs.
