FAQs

What is the main advantage of the deconstructed design?

The deconstructed design offers a unique aesthetic by showcasing the layered construction of the shoe, using a variety of materials like suede, mesh, and leather in a visually distinct way.

How does the translucent gum sole improve performance?

The translucent gum sole is specifically designed for skateboarding, providing enhanced grip, durability, and board feel, which is essential for control and stability during tricks and riding.

Are these shoes suitable for everyday wear as well as skateboarding?

Yes, while designed for skateboarding, their comfortable fit, supportive cushioning, and distinctive style make them suitable for casual, everyday wear.

How should I clean the different materials on the upper?

Suede sections should be brushed with a suede brush. Leather and fabric can be wiped with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid soaking the shoes and allow them to air dry.

What does 'Premium' refer to in the product name?

The 'Premium' designation typically refers to the use of higher-quality materials, enhanced construction techniques, and potentially improved design features compared to standard models.

What is the typical break-in period for these shoes?

Like many skate shoes with leather and suede components, they may require a short break-in period of a few wears to achieve maximum comfort as the materials mold to your foot.

Troubleshooting

Suede material looks matted or dirty

Use a dedicated suede brush to gently restore the nap and remove surface dirt. For stubborn stains, consider a specialized suede cleaner, testing on an inconspicuous area first.

Reduced grip on the gum sole

Clean the sole with a damp cloth to remove any accumulated dust or debris that might be reducing traction.

Laces fraying quickly

Consider replacing the standard laces with more durable waxed laces, which are often used in skate shoes.

Discomfort during initial wear

Allow the shoes a break-in period. Wear them for shorter durations initially and gradually increase wear time as they mold to your feet.
