FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for professional skateboarding?
Yes, the Superstar ADV features specialized technical upgrades like the Adituff layer and EVA cushioning specifically for skate performance.
Do these shoes run true to size?
Most users find them to be true to size, but the robust construction means they may feel snug at first.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
It is not recommended. Machine washing can damage the adhesives and the internal structure of the shoe.
What is the primary difference between the standard Superstar and the ADV model?
The ADV model includes hidden reinforced layers, improved shock absorption, and updated construction details tailored for skateboarding durability.
Is the material real leather?
The Superstar ADV uses high-quality leather and synthetic components optimized for durability.
Troubleshooting
Stiff feel during first wear
Wear the shoes indoors for short periods to allow the materials to flex and mold to your foot shape naturally.
Tongue sliding to the side
Ensure the lace is passed through the center loop on the tongue, which is designed to keep it aligned.
Dirt buildup on the shell toe
Use a soft-bristled brush and mild soapy water to gently scrub the rubber toe cap.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- High durability in high-wear zones due to Adituff layer
- Excellent shock absorption provided by the moulded EVA sockliner
- Classic, timeless style suitable for various outfits
- Secure fit and improved stability through updated tongue design
Cons
- Requires a break-in period for optimal flexibility
- Limited to a specific aesthetic style compared to ultra-minimalist skate shoes
- Weight may be higher than synthetic performance trainers
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Superstar ADV trainers stay in top condition:
- Initial Fit: Ensure you select the correct UK size, as the structure is firm and does not stretch as much as canvas shoes.
- Cleaning: Wipe away dirt from the leather exterior using a damp cloth. Avoid submerging the shoes in water to protect the integrity of the internal reinforcements.
- Lacing: Use a standard cross-lacing pattern for a balanced fit. The updated tongue is designed to stay centered, so avoid overtightening if you feel pressure on the bridge of your foot.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the leather and adhesives from degrading over time.
