FAQs

Are these shoes good for running?

The Etnies Scout trainers are designed for casual wear and light activities. They may not offer the specialized support and cushioning required for serious or long-distance running.

Can the heel be folded down?

Yes, the elastic heel support allows for a convertible drop-top access, meaning you can fold the heel down to wear them as slip-on shoes.

What is the outsole made of?

The outsole is made of STI Evolution foam with rubber pods for enhanced traction and durability.

How do I clean the inside of the shoe?

For the interior lining, a damp cloth with mild soap can be used. Ensure the shoe is thoroughly air-dried afterwards.

What type of fit can I expect?

The shoes feature a fully lined lycra spandex interior, designed to provide a snug, comfortable, sock-like fit.

Are these suitable for wide feet?

The standard fit is designed for typical adult male feet. For wider feet, it's recommended to check reviews or try them on if possible, as the snug interior may not accommodate wider feet comfortably.

Troubleshooting

Sizing feels incorrect

Consult the Etnies size chart and compare with your measurements. If still unsure, consider trying them on in-store or ordering from a retailer with a flexible return policy.

Reduced traction over time

Clean the rubber pods on the outsole with a brush to remove embedded dirt and debris that may be affecting grip.

Insole feels flat after prolonged use

The Foam Lite 1 insole is designed for comfort but may compress over time. Consider replacing the insole with an aftermarket one for added cushioning if needed.
