FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for beginners?
Yes, the Osiris Clone offers good support and impact protection, making them suitable for skaters of all levels, including beginners.
How do I know if I have the right size?
Refer to the UK sizing provided. The shoes should fit snugly but not uncomfortably tight, with enough room in the toe box. Ensure the heel does not slip excessively.
Can I machine wash these shoes?
It is not recommended to machine wash skate shoes, as it can damage the materials and adhesives. Hand wash using a damp cloth as described in the care instructions.
What is the 'FLX VLK' sole construction?
FLX VLK refers to a sole construction designed to enhance both grip on the skateboard and flexibility of the shoe, allowing for better board feel and easier movement.
How durable is the synthetic leather?
The synthetic leather upper is reinforced with double-stitched paneling, which significantly increases its durability and resistance to abrasion commonly encountered in skateboarding.
What is the purpose of the 'combo lacing system'?
The combo lacing system is designed to better secure the shoe to your foot and to protect the laces from fraying or breaking during intense skate sessions.
How much impact protection do these offer?
They offer maximum impact protection thanks to the compression-moulded EVA drop-in insole, which effectively absorbs shock from landings and impacts.
Troubleshooting
Laces wear out quickly.
Utilize the combination lacing system to protect laces from abrasion. Consider using lace guards or replacing worn laces with more durable options.
Shoes feel stiff initially.
This is normal for new skate shoes. Wear them for short periods initially, gradually increasing wear time. Skating will help break them in faster.
Reduced grip after use.
Clean the rubber outsole with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris that can reduce traction. Ensure the shoes are fully dry before skating.
Insole becomes uncomfortable.
The EVA insole is designed for impact. If discomfort persists after break-in, consider replacing it with a preferred aftermarket insole, ensuring it fits the shoe's last.
