FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for professional skateboarding?
The Nike SB Chron 2 Canvas is designed with skateboarding in mind, offering good grip and durability for regular skate sessions. For very high-level or frequent professional use, some skaters may prefer shoes with more advanced cushioning or reinforced construction.
How do I clean the white canvas material?
Use a soft brush with a mixture of mild soap and water. Gently scrub the canvas and wipe clean with a damp cloth. Allow to air dry completely.
Can I wear these shoes in wet conditions?
While the gum sole offers some grip, the canvas upper is not waterproof. It is best to avoid wearing these shoes in heavy rain or wet environments to prevent damage and discomfort.
What is the main difference between the SB series and standard Nike shoes?
The SB (Skateboarding) designation means the shoes are designed with features specific to skateboarding, such as enhanced grip, board feel, and durable materials suitable for skating.
How does the 'White Gum' colorway hold up?
The white canvas can show dirt more easily, while the gum sole is generally durable but can pick up dirt. Regular cleaning will help maintain the aesthetic.
Is this shoe available in other sizes?
Yes, the Nike Chron 2 Canvas SB is available in a range of adult sizes. Please check the product listing or other available variants for different size options.
Troubleshooting
Squeaking noise when walking
This can sometimes occur due to friction between the insole and the shoe lining. Try removing the insole, checking for debris, and reinserting it. A small amount of talcum powder under the insole might also help.
Laces fraying or breaking
Replace laces with a durable set designed for athletic footwear. Ensure they are not tied too tightly, which can cause premature wear.
Gum sole losing grip over time
Ensure the sole is clean. Grit and debris can significantly reduce traction. Clean the sole regularly with a damp cloth.
