FAQs

Are these shoes truly waterproof?

The shoes feature a water-resistant treated upper, which provides protection against moisture and light rain. They are not fully waterproof and may not withstand prolonged submersion in water.

How warm are the Etnies Jefferson MTW shoes?

They are designed for warmth, featuring a 3M Thinsulate lining and a thermal heat retention aluminium stroble board, making them suitable for colder weather conditions.

What is the primary purpose of these shoes?

These are skate shoes designed for performance, durability, and comfort, with added features for warmth and water resistance suitable for colder climates or seasons.

How do I clean the suede parts of the shoe?

Use a soft brush to remove dry dirt. For stains, a slightly damp cloth with mild soap and water can be used carefully. Avoid soaking the suede.

What kind of grip can I expect?

You can expect excellent grip thanks to the 400NBS rubber outsole with a reverse lug tread pattern, designed for stability on skateboards and various surfaces.

What is the benefit of the gusseted tongue?

A gusseted tongue helps keep debris like dirt and pebbles out of the shoe and provides a more secure, snug fit around the foot.

Can I wear these in the summer?

While they offer comfort, the primary design focus is on warmth. They may be too warm for very hot summer conditions but are suitable for milder summer evenings or cooler climates.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Loosen the laces. The Foam Lite 1 insole may also compress slightly with wear, providing more comfort over time. If still uncomfortable, consider if the size is correct for your foot.

Reduced traction on outsole

Clean the outsole thoroughly with water and a brush to remove accumulated dirt and debris that may be reducing grip.

Water seeping through

Ensure the water-resistant treatment is intact. Minor wear may occur over time. For deeper immersion, consider additional waterproofing sprays suitable for footwear, though this may affect breathability.

Insole feels flat

The Foam Lite 1 insole is designed for cushioning. If it feels excessively flat, it may need replacement after extended heavy use. Contact customer support for potential replacement options.
