Troubleshooting

Laces not included

Contact the retailer or seller where the shoes were purchased. Due to limited release conditions, some accessories may not always be included. We cannot guarantee the inclusion of blue laces.

Leather creasing or scuffing

Minor creasing is natural with leather. For scuffs, try using a leather cleaner and conditioner. For deeper creases, specialized leather care products might help.

Fit feels too tight

Try loosening the laces, especially around the forefoot. Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow the leather to break in. Ensure the elastic band is not overly constricted.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Unique and highly sought-after collectible design.
  • Premium leather construction for durability and comfort.
  • Distinctive 'lobster' theme with eye-catching details.
  • Suitable for both skateboarding performance and casual style.
  • A notable addition to any sneaker collection.

Cons

  • Limited availability makes it difficult to acquire.
  • May not include all advertised accessories (e.g., blue laces).
  • High resale value can be prohibitive for some.
  • The unique design may not suit all personal styles.
  • Leather may require specific care to maintain appearance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

These shoes require no specific setup beyond lacing them to your preferred tightness. Ensure the elastic band across the forefoot is comfortable but not overly restrictive.

Compatibility:

Designed primarily for adult males, these shoes are compatible with standard skateboarding activities. They are also suitable for casual wear.

Care:

  • Cleaning: Gently wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  • Laces: If laces are included, they can be cleaned separately with mild soap and water.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag or the original box to maintain shape and protect from dust.
  • Conditioning: Consider using a leather conditioner periodically to keep the material supple and prevent cracking.
