While comfortable for walking, these shoes are designed for skateboarding and casual wear, not for high-impact activities like running. They lack the specialized cushioning and support needed for running.

Use a damp cloth with a small amount of mild soap to gently clean white rubber or synthetic accents. Avoid harsh chemicals that could damage the material.

The lifespan varies greatly depending on the intensity and frequency of skateboarding. For regular, heavy use, expect them to last several months to a year before significant wear appears.

Wear the shoes with thin socks initially to allow them to stretch slightly. If the tightness is significant, consider trying a half-size larger.

Use a suede brush to clean the surface. For stubborn stains, consult a specialist suede cleaner and follow its instructions carefully. Protect with a suede protector spray.

Ensure the outsole is clean from debris. The rubber compound is designed for grip on skateboards; performance on extremely wet or polished surfaces may vary.
