FAQs
Are these suitable for actual skateboarding?
The Etnies Scout trainers have a skate-inspired design and are durable for casual wear. While they can handle light skating or downtime after skating, they are not designed for the extreme demands of professional skateboarding.
How do I clean the mesh upper?
Gently wipe the mesh with a damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a mild soap solution sparingly and wipe clean with a damp cloth. Always air dry.
What is the main benefit of the STI Evolution Foam midsole?
The STI Evolution Foam midsole provides excellent cushioning, making the trainers comfortable for extended wear and helping to reduce foot fatigue.
Can these trainers be worn in wet weather?
The Etnies Scout trainers are primarily designed for dry conditions. The breathable mesh upper is not water-resistant, so they are best avoided during heavy rain.
What does 'super-light construction' mean for comfort?
Super-light construction means the trainers are very lightweight, which significantly contributes to all-day comfort by reducing the effort required to walk and move.
How does the lycra spandex interior contribute to the fit?
The fully lined lycra spandex interior provides a snug and comfortable fit, adapting to the shape of your foot for a secure feel.
What is Etnies' commitment to the environment?
Etnies is committed to environmental sustainability and has planted over 2.3 million trees, involving its community in making a positive impact.
Troubleshooting
Foot fatigue during long wear.
Ensure you have the correct size. The padded collar and breathable mesh should help, but if fatigue persists, consider adding supportive insoles.
Mesh upper appears dirty.
Gently wipe the mesh with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid excessive scrubbing that could damage the material. Allow to air dry.
Sole feels slippery on certain surfaces.
The rubber pods offer traction, but performance can vary by surface. Ensure the sole is free from debris. For significantly slippery conditions, these may not be the optimal choice.

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for adult male users. Their versatile design makes them compatible with a wide range of casual attire, including jeans, shorts, and athletic wear.
Care: To maintain the condition of your Etnies Scout trainers:
- Cleaning the Upper: Use a damp cloth to wipe away dirt and dust from the mesh and nylon upper. For stubborn marks, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth.
- Cleaning the Midsole and Sole: Clean the foam midsole and rubber pods with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals that could damage the materials.
- Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources, such as radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials.
