FAQs
What age group is this shoe intended for?
This specific model is designed for kids and toddlers, with the listed size being UK 13.
How durable is the toe cap?
The shoe features a rubber printed toe cap, which is specifically designed to enhance durability in this high-wear area, protecting against abrasion from skateboarding.
What is the primary benefit of the STI Comfort Level 1 insole?
The STI Comfort Level 1 insole provides cushioning and impact absorption, contributing to overall comfort during skating and everyday wear.
Are these shoes suitable for sports other than skateboarding?
While comfortable for general wear, these shoes are engineered with skateboarding-specific features. They offer good grip and support for skating, but may not be optimized for high-impact sports requiring different types of support or cushioning.
How do I ensure I get the right size?
Refer to the Etnies sizing chart and measure your child's foot. Given that sizing can vary, comparing foot measurements to the chart is the best approach.
What maintenance is required for these shoes?
Regular cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap is recommended. Avoid machine washing. Ensure they air dry naturally away from direct heat.
Troubleshooting
Laces keep coming undone
Ensure laces are tied securely. Utilize the hidden lace loops to tuck and secure the excess lace length.
Shoe feels stiff initially
The shoe may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time. Flexing the shoe manually can also help.
Traction seems reduced on wet surfaces
The tyre tread is designed for optimal grip on dry surfaces. Exercise caution when skating or walking on wet or slippery conditions.
