FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for everyday walking?

Yes, they are comfortable for daily wear, though they are specifically engineered for skate-related performance which makes them slightly firmer than a dedicated running shoe.

How do I keep the suede or leather clean?

Use a specialized cleaner for the specific upper material and avoid submerging the shoes in water.

Does the Superstar ADV fit true to size?

Yes, these generally fit true to your standard UK shoe size. If you prefer a loose fit for skating, you may consider a half size up.

Can I remove the EVA sockliner?

Yes, the sockliner is removable, which is helpful if you use custom orthotics.

What is the primary difference between standard Superstars and the ADV version?

The ADV version includes technical upgrades for skateboarding, such as the hidden Adituff reinforcement, double-stitched seams, and improved shock absorption.

Troubleshooting

Tongue feels uncomfortable or slips

Adjust the lace tension slightly and ensure the tongue is centered; the updated construction should hold it in place once tied securely.

Shoe feels stiff out of the box

Wear the shoes indoors for short periods to allow the materials to soften and adapt to your foot shape naturally.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Enhanced durability for high-impact use
  • Excellent shock absorption via EVA sockliner
  • Classic, versatile aesthetic suitable for casual wear
  • Secure fit and lockdown during movement

Cons

  • Requires a break-in period for maximum comfort
  • Specifically tuned for skating, which may feel firmer than pure lifestyle shoes
  • Limited to specific aesthetic styles compared to standard Superstars

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the best fit, ensure you select your standard UK size, but keep in mind that the structured tongue and reinforcement layers provide a snug, secure fit. For care, avoid machine washing these trainers, as excessive water can damage the reinforced materials. Instead, wipe the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap to remove dirt. Use a soft-bristled brush to clear grip tape residue from the soles and laces to maintain traction and hygiene.
