Full details

The Etnies Serin Michelin trainers are designed for adult male skateboarders and casual wearers who demand exceptional durability and grip from their footwear. By pairing a classic skate silhouette with a high-performance Michelin rubber outsole, these trainers offer superior traction for both street and park skating, though the suede construction requires careful maintenance in wet conditions to preserve the material's integrity.

FAQs

Can these shoes be machine washed?

No, machine washing will damage the suede material and weaken the structural adhesives. Clean only with a dry brush.

What makes the Michelin sole different?

The Michelin outsole is specifically compounded to offer better friction and resistance to wear compared to standard skate shoe rubber.

Are these shoes true to size?

The Etnies Serin Michelin generally fits true to standard adult UK sizing; however, the secure internal elastic straps provide a snugger feel than traditional trainers.

Do I need to break them in?

While the STI Performance Level 1 insole is comfortable out of the box, the suede and internal construction will break in and adapt to your foot movement within a few days of regular use.

Are these suitable for non-skaters?

Yes, their stylish black and grey design and focus on comfort make them excellent for casual, everyday wear.

How do I protect the suede from stains?

Apply a water-repellent suede spray designed for footwear to help protect against minor spills and dirt accumulation.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight initially

The elastic tongue straps provide a secure fit; ensure the tongue is centered and not bunched up. Suede will naturally stretch slightly over time to match your foot shape.

Surface dirt on suede

Use a dry suede brush or a specialized suede eraser. Never use heavy soap or a washing machine, as this will ruin the material.

Laces fraying quickly

Ensure the laces are tucked securely using the provided hidden lace loops to prevent contact with the griptape.

Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For the best fit, utilize the internal elasticated tongue straps; these allow you to skate without tightly tying the laces if preferred, providing a slip-on feel with secure retention. To maintain the suede material, use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt and dust after every session. Avoid submerging the shoes in water, as this can degrade the glue and damage the suede fibers. If the shoes become damp, stuff them with paper and allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources like radiators. Because the upper features double and triple-stitch seams, ensure you inspect these areas periodically for loose threads if you are a frequent skater.
