Product Information
Full details
The Nike SB PS8 Cool Grey trainers are designed for adult male skateboarders seeking a blend of innovative design and durable materials. Its key benefit lies in the advanced construction aimed at improving upon common skateboarding shoe obstacles, offering a unique feel for riders. A potential caveat is the specific aesthetic which may not appeal to all skaters, and it is a new release, meaning long-term durability in extreme conditions is still being assessed by the community. This shoe combines Flyknit fabric and leather in a multi-gray colorway, featuring a distinctive Metallic Silver Swoosh, and a clear midsole.

Troubleshooting
Shoe feels too stiff or too loose
Adjust the lacing pattern to achieve a more secure or relaxed fit. Ensure you are wearing appropriate skate socks for added comfort and fit.
Squeaking noise from the sole
This can sometimes occur with new shoes. Try flexing the shoe or wearing them for a short period to break them in. Ensure no debris is trapped between the sole layers.
Flyknit material snagged or torn
Small snags may not affect performance significantly. For larger tears, consider professional repair or reinforcement if possible, though this may alter the shoe's aesthetic and performance.
Discoloration on the clear midsole
Wipe the midsole with a damp cloth. For stubborn marks, a mild soap solution can be used. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could scratch the surface.

Care:
To maintain the condition of your Nike SB PS8 trainers:
