Troubleshooting
Squeaking sound from sole
This can sometimes occur due to moisture trapped between layers. Ensure the shoes are dry. If it persists, a small amount of talcum powder under the insole might help.
Canvas appears faded or dirty
Gently clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. For deeper cleaning, consider a specialized canvas shoe cleaner, following product instructions. Allow to air dry completely.
Laces fraying
Replace laces promptly to prevent further damage and maintain shoe appearance. Consider using waxed laces for increased durability.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: These are designed as lifestyle and skate-inspired footwear. While suitable for light skateboarding, they are not intended for highly technical or professional skateboarding that demands specialized board feel or extreme durability.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning the Upper: For the canvas upper, use a soft brush or a damp cloth to gently remove dirt and dust. Avoid soaking the material.
- Midsole and Outsole: Clean the foam midsole and rubber outsole with a damp cloth. For tougher scuffs, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth.
- Laces: Remove laces for separate cleaning. Hand wash with mild detergent and air dry.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve color and material integrity. Using a shoe tree can help maintain the shoe's shape.
