FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for professional skateboarding?
Yes, they feature a durable suede upper, high foxing tape, and a high-traction Vibram outsole designed for skate performance.
Can I wash these in a washing machine?
It is not recommended to wash these in a machine, as the suede material and leather knot details can be damaged by water and agitation.
What is the benefit of the Ortholite insole?
The Ortholite insole provides superior moisture management and long-term cushioning that won't lose its shape over time.
Does the suede require special maintenance?
Yes, using a suede-specific brush and water-repellent spray is recommended to keep the material clean and protected.
How does the Vibram outsole differ from standard soles?
The Vibram tank tread is engineered for increased durability and provides significantly better grip on a wider variety of surfaces than traditional rubber outsoles.
Troubleshooting
Suede looks dull or matted
Use a suede brush in a circular motion to lift the nap and restore the original texture.
Knots becoming loose or frayed
Avoid pulling or snagging the leather cords; use a leather conditioner periodically to keep the cords supple and prevent drying.
Insole losing comfort
Remove the Ortholite insole and clean it with mild soap and water; ensure it is completely dry before reinserting.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These trainers fit true to standard adult sizing, though the suede upper may require a brief break-in period to achieve maximum flexibility. To maintain the appearance of your trainers, use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dust from the suede. Avoid machine washing or submerging the shoes in water, as this can degrade the suede material and affect the integrity of the leather cord knots. If the shoes become damp, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, which can cause the material to stiffen or shrink. For best results, use a water-repellent spray specifically designed for suede to protect against light rain and spills.
