Shoe feels too tight or loose.
Ensure you have selected the correct UK size (9 for this model). If the fit is still not ideal, consider using different lacing techniques or checking if insoles are causing pressure.
Soles are wearing down quickly.
Excessive wear on the soles can indicate heavy usage or specific skateboarding techniques. For optimal longevity, rotate with another pair of shoes if possible, and ensure proper technique during skateboarding.
Material appears stained or discolored.
For the 'Bone' colorway, stains can be more visible. Gently clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. For persistent stains, consider specialized shoe cleaners suitable for the shoe's materials, testing in an inconspicuous area first.
