How do I ensure I have the right size?

Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the materials and the adhesive used in the sole construction. Always clean by hand.
What is the primary material used for the upper?
The shoe uses highly durable materials specifically selected to withstand the friction and stress associated with skateboarding.
Are these shoes good for high-impact tricks?

Troubleshooting
Feeling discomfort after initial wear
Ensure the laces are adjusted correctly to balance lockdown and circulation; a short break-in period is typically required.
Accumulation of dirt on the outsole affecting grip
Wipe the outsole with a damp cloth or soft brush to restore the effectiveness of the traction pattern.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Nike SB PS8 maintains its integrity and performance:
- Break-in Period: Like all performance skate shoes, allow a short period for the materials to soften and adapt to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dust and dirt from the upper. For deeper stains, use a mild soap solution and a damp cloth, then allow to air dry away from direct heat sources.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place to prevent moisture buildup in the cushioning materials.
- Fit: Ensure you are wearing the correct UK size for your foot to maximize the benefit of the internal padding and lockdown features.
