FAQs
Are these shoes good for beginners in skateboarding?
Yes, the mid-top design offers good ankle support and the durable construction with Zoom Air cushioning provides comfort and protection, making them suitable for beginner skaters.
How do I clean the suede upper?
Use a suede brush for general cleaning and dirt removal. For stains, a suede eraser or a slightly damp cloth with a mild cleaner can be used, followed by air drying. Avoid soaking the suede.
What is the benefit of the Zoom Air unit?
The Zoom Air unit is embedded in the sole to provide responsive cushioning and absorb impact, which is beneficial during skateboarding tricks and landings.
What is the primary use case for these sneakers?
These sneakers are primarily designed as skate shoes, offering durability, grip, and cushioning for skateboarding. They also serve as a stylish casual footwear option.
What is the material of the upper?
The upper is constructed from a combination of soft suede and canvas for durability and a classic look.
How does the outsole contribute to performance?
The durable rubber outsole features a herringbone pattern that provides excellent grip and traction, essential for skateboarding.
When were these shoes released?

Troubleshooting
Laces break easily
Replace with more durable skate-specific laces. Ensure laces are not tied too tightly, which can cause premature wear.
Grip seems reduced on wet surfaces
The herringbone pattern offers best performance on dry surfaces. For wet conditions, exercise caution as traction may be compromised.
Suede material looks dirty or matted
Use a dedicated suede brush to restore the nap. For stains, spot clean with a suede cleaner or a slightly damp cloth, and allow to air dry completely.
Ankle support feels too high
This is a mid-top design for enhanced support. If a lower profile is preferred, consider low-top Blazer variants. Ensure the lacing is adjusted for comfort.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:

Care:
