FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for everyday walking?

Yes, the EVA insole and cupsole construction provide ample cushioning for daily use.

How do I know if the size is correct?

The Manteca 4 fits true to standard adult sizing, but remember the internal padding can make them feel snug initially.

Is the material waterproof?

No, while the leather is durable, it is not waterproof. Avoid heavy exposure to rain or deep puddles.

Can I replace the insoles?

Yes, the EVA insoles are removable if you prefer to use your own custom orthotics.

Does the pill pattern tread wear out quickly?

The rubber outsole is designed for high-abrasion resistance, making it durable for both daily walking and skating.

Are these shoes vegan?

No, this model is constructed using leather materials.

Troubleshooting

Tongue shifts to the side during walking

Adjust the tongue centering system and ensure the laces are threaded through the tongue-loop firmly.

Stiff sensation upon first wear

This is common with high-padding skate shoes; wear them for short durations to allow the internal foam and leather to soften.

Difficulty cleaning white accents

Use a specialized sneaker cleaning foam or a mixture of mild soap and water with a soft toothbrush to gently scrub the white panels.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent durability due to triple-stitched leather panels
  • Superior impact protection from the performance cupsole
  • Comfortable fit aided by the padded collar and tongue centering system
  • Classic aesthetic that pairs well with various outfits

Cons

  • Requires a break-in period due to heavy internal padding
  • The leather upper can feel warm during peak summer months
  • Cupsole construction is stiffer than thin vulcanized alternatives

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Manteca 4 trainers last as long as possible, it is important to follow proper maintenance steps. Since the upper is made of leather, avoid machine washing, which can damage the adhesive bonds and cause the material to warp.

  1. Cleaning: Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt from the surface. For deeper stains on the leather, use a damp cloth with mild leather cleaner.
  2. Drying: Always air dry the shoes away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent the leather from cracking.
  3. Fit: The shoes feature a tongue centering system; ensure this is pulled snug during initial setup to maximize lockdown.
  4. Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent colour fading.
