FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for professional skating?

They are built for durability and feature non-slip grips suitable for light skating, but heavy professional use may wear them down faster than dedicated pro-model skate shoes.

How do I choose the correct size?

These shoes follow standard UK adult foot sizing; it is recommended to buy your usual size as they have a consistent, standard fit.

Can I put these in the washing machine?

It is not recommended to machine wash these, as it can damage the materials and the eco-friendly construction; stick to hand cleaning.

Are these made with vegan materials?

The Eco Theory series is built with sustainable design choices in mind, though specific material composition may vary—always check the product label for full details.

Will the color fade over time?

As with any canvas shoe, some fading may occur with heavy sun exposure and frequent washing, but they are constructed for long-term wear.

Troubleshooting

Difficulty cleaning surface stains

Use a soft-bristled brush with mild soap and cold water, rubbing gently in circular motions.

Laces becoming loose during activity

Use a double knot or consider replacing with performance-grade laces if used for intense movement.

Visible wear on the side walls

Clean the rubber foxing with a specialized shoe eraser or magic sponge to maintain the crisp look.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Sustainable design elements
  • Excellent traction for daily use
  • Durable, wear-resistant exterior
  • Iconic and recognizable silhouette

Cons

  • Bold colorway can be difficult to style
  • Limited to casual/light skate use
  • Specific aesthetic may not suit minimalist tastes

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These shoes are ready to wear right out of the box. As a standard low-top trainer, they are highly compatible with most casual outfits, including denim, chinos, or shorts. To maintain the appearance of the vibrant checkered pattern and the integrity of the eco-friendly materials, it is recommended to spot-clean with a soft cloth and mild, soap-based cleaner rather than machine washing. Avoid direct prolonged exposure to extreme heat, as this can affect the adhesive bond of the rubber outsole. When choosing your size, use standard UK adult sizing to ensure a secure fit, as the canvas construction provides a consistent, snug feel.
