FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for beginners in skateboarding?
Yes, the Court Graffik provides good cushioning and grip, making them suitable for beginners and experienced skaters alike.
How do I best clean the black suede material?
Use a dry suede brush for dust and light dirt. For tougher stains, use a slightly damp cloth and allow to air dry. Avoid harsh chemicals or machine washing.
What is the main benefit of the padded collar and tongue?
The foam padding provides enhanced comfort, ankle support, and cushioning, which is beneficial during skateboarding and prolonged wear.
Can these shoes be worn for activities other than skateboarding?
Yes, while designed for skateboarding, their comfortable and stylish design makes them suitable for casual everyday wear.
Do the vent holes affect the shoe's durability?
The vent holes are strategically placed to enhance breathability without significantly compromising the structural integrity or durability of the suede upper.
What size should I order if I'm between UK sizes?
It is generally recommended to size up if you are between sizes to ensure a comfortable fit, especially with skate shoes that may require some break-in time.
Troubleshooting
Shoe feels too tight
Loosen the laces and ensure the tongue is positioned correctly. Suede may stretch slightly with wear. If still too tight, consider the next size up.
Suede getting dirty
Use a suede brush to clean away dry dirt. For wet stains, blot gently with a damp cloth and allow to air dry. Consider using a suede protector spray.
Reduced grip on the sole
Check the tread pattern for embedded debris and clean it out with a brush or pick. Ensure the sole is dry, as moisture can reduce grip.
