Troubleshooting

Laces won't stay tied

Ensure laces are threaded through all eyelets and tied securely. Consider double-knotting or replacing laces if they are worn.

Uneven wear on outsole

Check for any debris lodged in the sole. Ensure the child is walking naturally and not scuffing their feet excessively.

Discoloration on suede

Use a suede eraser or a dry suede brush to gently lift stains. Protect suede from water and heavy dirt.
