FAQs
What type of support does the insole offer?
The trainers feature a STI Comfort Level 1 insole, designed to provide a comfortable and supportive base for everyday wear.
Are these shoes suitable for professional skateboarding?
While the rubber pods offer good traction, these trainers are primarily designed for comfort and durability in casual settings. For professional skateboarding, footwear specifically engineered for that sport may offer better protection and longevity.
How do I clean the Blue/White trainers?
Spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid machine washing or soaking. Air dry naturally.
What is the purpose of the elastic heel support?
The elastic heel support enhances the fit and comfort by keeping the heel securely in place. It also allows for a 'drop-top' convertible wear option, providing flexibility in how you wear the shoe.
What material is the outsole made of?
The outsole features strategically placed rubber pods for excellent traction, combined with STI Evolution foam for lightweight cushioning and durability.
Can I wear these trainers without socks?
Yes, the interior is fully lined with lycra spandex for a comfortable, friction-reducing fit, making them suitable for wear with or without socks.
Troubleshooting
Reduced grip on the outsole
Clean the rubber pods on the outsole with a damp cloth to remove any accumulated dirt or debris that may be affecting traction.
Discomfort or rubbing inside the shoe
Ensure socks are worn correctly. If the issue persists, the internal lycra lining might need a brief break-in period, or consider using thinner socks.
Shoes feel too loose
Utilize the elastic heel support by ensuring it sits snugly around the heel. If a tighter fit is still desired, consider using aftermarket insoles for a snugger feel or alternative lacing techniques.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These trainers require no setup out of the box. They are compatible with standard sock wear. To care for your Etnies trainers, spot clean any dirt or scuffs with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid machine washing or submerging the shoes in water, as this can damage the materials and adhesives. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally, away from direct heat sources. For stubborn stains, a soft brush can be used gently. Ensure they are stored in a cool, dry place when not in use to maintain their shape and integrity.
