FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for everyday walking?

How do I clean the suede material?
Use a dry suede brush to remove dirt. For stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner and avoid using water.
Is the sizing true to fit?

Can I use these for other sports?
These shoes are designed for skating. While they offer good support, they lack the specific cushioning needed for long-distance running or court sports.
Why does the sole feature Michelin technology?
Etnies collaborated with Michelin to provide a rubber compound that offers significantly improved abrasion resistance and grip compared to standard skate shoes.
Troubleshooting
Sole losing grip over time
Clean the bottom of the soles with a soft brush and mild soap to remove compacted dirt and restore the rubber's natural stickiness.
Suede looks dull or matted
Use a suede-specific brush to lift the fibers and restore the original texture and appearance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Etnies Serin Michelin trainers last, it is important to follow proper maintenance steps. Since the upper is crafted from suede, avoid machine washing, which can damage the nap of the material. Instead, use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt and debris after your skate session. If the shoes become damp, let them air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent the glue from weakening or the material from shrinking. Ensure you are ordering your standard size, as these trainers fit true to size for most users.
