Troubleshooting

Yellowing of icy soles.

This is a natural process for translucent materials. Clean gently with a sole cleaner. For severe yellowing, specialized de-yellowing products can be used cautiously, but results vary.

Scuff marks on metallic silver upper.

Gently wipe the affected area with a damp microfiber cloth. For stubborn marks, a magic eraser can be used very lightly and with extreme care, testing on an inconspicuous area first.

Laces becoming dirty.

Remove laces and wash them by hand with mild soap and water. Allow them to air dry completely before re-lacing.

Fading of embroidery or printed details.

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and harsh chemicals. Clean gently and store properly to preserve these details.
