FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for professional skateboarding?
Yes, the Locut 2k is built with a durable cupsole and triple-stitched toe, making it well-suited for skate sessions.
How do I ensure I pick the right size?
The Locut 2k runs true to standard UK sizing; choose your usual trainer size for the best fit.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the suede material and compromise the structural integrity of the cupsole. Always clean by hand.
What is the primary material used?
The exterior is crafted from high-quality suede, selected for both its aesthetic appeal and its durability.
Is the footbed removable?
The STI Foam Lite Level 1 footbed provides integrated support, though it can generally be removed if you need to insert custom orthotics.
Do these shoes provide good ankle support?
The padded collar is designed to provide comfort and a snug fit, offering moderate ankle support typical of low-cut skate shoes.
Troubleshooting
The suede is showing water stains.
Allow the shoes to air dry completely, then use a suede brush to restore the nap of the material.
The shoes feel tight across the midfoot.
The padded tongue and collar may initially feel firm; wear the shoes for a few hours indoors to allow the interior foam to mold to your foot shape.
Loss of traction on the sole.
Wipe the outsole with a damp cloth to remove compacted dirt and debris that can impede the grip pattern.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because the Locut 2k features a suede exterior, proper care is essential to maintain the product's longevity. Avoid wearing these shoes in heavy rain or muddy conditions, as suede absorbs moisture and can be easily stained. To clean, use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized suede eraser or cleaning solution designed for leather products. Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading of the camouflage panels. Ensure you select your standard UK sizing for the best fit, as the padded collar provides a snug, secure wrap around the foot.
