Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable

Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. If the shoes are slightly tight, wear them for short periods to allow them to break in. Consider using thicker socks for a snugger fit or thinner socks for a looser feel.

Reduced grip on the skateboard

Check the outsole for excessive dirt or debris. Clean the rubber outsole with a damp cloth. If the outsole shows significant wear, it may be time to consider a replacement pair.

Upper material showing signs of wear

Reinforced stitching helps, but excessive abrasion can still occur. For minor scuffs, cleaning with a damp cloth may help. Regular care and avoiding extreme use can prolong the life of the upper.

Care: To maintain the condition of your Etnies Kingpin 2K Trainers:
