FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
While designed for durability, the suede material is not inherently waterproof. For enhanced water resistance, consider applying a suede protector spray.
What is the main advantage of the Jefferson MTW design?
The main advantage is their robust durability combined with a design ethos rooted in skateboarding, offering both performance and style suitable for tough environments.
How does Etnies' sustainability mission apply to these shoes?
Etnies' commitment to planting trees and environmental responsibility is a core part of their brand. While not directly evident in the shoe's materials, purchasing supports these initiatives.
Can these shoes be worn for activities other than skateboarding?
Yes, they are designed for durability and style, making them suitable for general casual wear, walking, and exploring various environments.
How should I store these trainers when not in use?
Store them in a cool, dry place, ideally in a shoe box or bag, away from direct sunlight and moisture to preserve the suede and overall structure.
What does 'MTW' stand for?
MTW typically stands for 'Model. Trail. Winter.' or similar variations, suggesting enhanced durability or suitability for varied conditions, though specific details may vary by Etnies product line.
Troubleshooting
Suede material looks dirty or stained.
Use a suede eraser to gently lift stains. For persistent marks, a damp cloth with a minimal amount of mild soap can be used, followed by air drying. Always test cleaning methods on an inconspicuous area first.
Shoes feel stiff initially.
This is common with new suede shoes. Wear them for short periods indoors to break them in. The material will naturally soften with use.
Laces are showing wear.
Replace laces with standard shoelaces of a similar length. Many shoe or sporting goods stores carry replacement laces.
