FAQs
Can I remove the hook-and-loop strap?
Yes, the strap is detachable, allowing you to customize the look and fit of the shoe.
Are these shoes true to size?
The JS 1 generally fits true to size, though the extra padding in the tongue and collar may make them feel slightly more snug than thinner skate shoes.
What material is the upper made of?
The upper is constructed from high-quality leather, with tonal mesh under-panelling for improved breathability.
How do I maintain the grip on the outsole?
Keep the soles free of debris and mud. The Pill Pattern will maintain its effectiveness as long as the rubber is kept clean.
Is this shoe suitable for daily walking?
Absolutely. The EVA heel insert and PU insole provide excellent comfort for long periods of standing or walking.
Troubleshooting
Heel slippage
Tighten the laces through the leather loops and adjust the hook-and-loop strap to firmly lock your heel in the cup.
Stiff fit upon first wear
Wear the shoes for short periods indoors to allow the foam padding and leather to soften naturally to your foot shape.
Laces coming loose
Ensure the laces are threaded properly through all leather looping points to distribute tension evenly across the midfoot.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- High-level foot stability and arch support
- Excellent grip provided by Super Rubber outsoles
- Highly customizable fit with the detachable strap
- Durable leather construction stands up to heavy wear
- Integrated heel stabilizer prevents slippage
Cons
- Slightly heavier than minimalist performance shoes
- Padding requires a short break-in period
- Not intended for high-intensity running
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To achieve the best fit, utilize the leather lace looping system to pull the upper tight across the midfoot before securing the hook-and-loop strap. The strap is detachable if you prefer a cleaner look or less restrictive feel. For care, gently wipe down the leather upper with a soft, dry cloth to remove dirt. For tougher stains on the leather or suede sections, use a specialized leather cleaner or a soft brush for suede maintenance. Avoid machine washing or drying, as high heat can damage the foam materials and the integrity of the adhesive bond between the upper and the outsole.
