FAQs
What age group are these shoes designed for?
These Etnies Marana trainers are designed for kids and toddlers.
How do I ensure I order the correct size?
It is recommended to measure your child's foot and compare it to the Etnies sizing chart, paying close attention to the UK children's foot sizing.
Are these shoes suitable for sports other than skateboarding?
While comfortable, their design features like the tyre tread and reinforced toe cap are optimized for skateboarding performance and durability. They may not be ideal for all athletic activities.
How durable is the rubber printed toe cap?
The rubber printed toe cap is designed to be highly durable, providing protection against the abrasion and impact common in skateboarding, thus extending the shoe's lifespan.
What is the benefit of the STI Comfort Level 1 insole?
The STI Comfort Level 1 insole provides lightweight cushioning and impact absorption, contributing to comfort during skating sessions and reducing foot fatigue.
Can the hidden lace loops be seen when worn?
The 'hidden' lace loops are designed to keep laces tucked away discreetly, enhancing the shoe's clean look and preventing laces from snagging.
Troubleshooting
Shoe feels too tight or loose.
Adjust lacing using the hidden loops. Ensure you have selected the correct UK size by measuring your child's foot and comparing it to the size chart. Consider the 'padded tongue and collar' for a snugger fit.
Grip seems reduced on the board.
Clean the outsole with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris that may be hindering traction. Ensure the grip tape on your skateboard is clean as well.
Visible wear on the toe area after limited use.
The rubber printed toe cap is designed for this. If significant damage or separation occurs prematurely, review the care instructions and consider if the shoes are being used for activities beyond their intended skate purpose.
