FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for professional skateboarding?

While designed with skateboarding in mind, they are best suited for casual or recreational skateboarding. For professional-level intensity, consider models specifically engineered for advanced skate performance.

How do I determine my UK size?

Refer to standard UK sizing charts available online, comparing your foot measurement to the corresponding UK size. As these are unisex, ensure you are referencing the correct unisex or men's/women's equivalent if needed.

Can I machine wash these sneakers?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the leather, adhesives, and overall structure of the shoe.

What is the main difference between the Chron SB 2 and other Nike SB models?

The Chron SB 2 typically offers a more streamlined, classic silhouette focused on comfort and everyday style, while other SB models might feature more advanced cushioning, support, or specialized designs for specific skateboarding disciplines.

How should I care for the leather material?

Clean with a damp cloth and mild leather cleaner. Allow to air dry naturally and consider using a leather protectant spray for added durability.

What does 'Rattan University Red' refer to?

This refers to the colorway. 'Rattan' describes the neutral beige tone, and 'University Red' denotes the vibrant red accent color used on the shoe.

Troubleshooting

Stiff leather upon arrival

Leather may feel stiff initially. Wear the shoes regularly for short periods to break them in, or use a leather conditioner to soften the material.

Color transfer from red accents

In rare cases, the red color might transfer to lighter socks. Ensure socks are colorfast and avoid prolonged exposure to moisture, especially when new.

Reduced grip on wet surfaces

Like most rubber-soled shoes, grip may be reduced on very wet or slippery surfaces. Exercise caution in such conditions.
