FAQs
What material are the Nike Chron SB 2 made of?
The Nike Chron SB 2 'Rattan University Red' are made from leather.
Are these shoes suitable for professional skateboarding?
While designed with skateboarding in mind, their suitability for professional use depends on individual preference for cushioning, board feel, and durability. They offer good performance for recreational and intermediate skateboarding.
How should I clean the leather upper?
Gently wipe the leather with a slightly damp cloth. For more significant dirt, use a dedicated leather cleaner and a soft brush or cloth.
What does 'Chron SB 2' signify?
'SB' typically stands for 'Skateboarding', indicating the line's intended use. 'Chron' is part of the model name, and '2' suggests it's a second iteration or updated version of a previous model.
What is the colourway of this specific model?
This model, DM3493-202, features a 'Rattan University Red' colourway, which translates to a khaki base with red accents.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, most skate shoes, including the Chron SB 2, allow for the removal of the original insole, enabling you to insert custom orthotics or preferred insoles.
Troubleshooting
Laces come undone easily.
Ensure laces are tied securely with a double knot. Consider replacing thin laces with thicker, more durable ones.
Soles feel slippery.
Ensure the soles are clean and free from debris. If the issue persists, the grip may have worn down over time, indicating a need for replacement.
Leather shows scuffs.
Minor scuffs can often be buffed out with a soft cloth. For deeper marks, a leather conditioner or repair kit may be necessary.
Uncomfortable after initial wear.
Allow the shoes to break in gradually by wearing them for short periods. Adjust lacing to relieve pressure points.
