Troubleshooting
Yellowing of the translucent outsole
This is a natural aging process for translucent rubber. While it cannot be fully reversed, keeping the shoes clean and stored away from direct sunlight can slow the process.
Creasing on the patent leather sections
Minor creasing can occur with wear. To minimize this, avoid harsh bends in the shoe during wear and use a shoe tree for storage to help maintain shape.
Difficulty lacing the shoes evenly
Ensure the laces are fully loosened before putting on the shoe. Lace them up gradually, applying even pressure to each eyelet for a snug but comfortable fit.

Care Instructions:

- Laces: Clean laces separately by hand with mild soap and water, then air dry.
- Outsole: The translucent red outsole can be cleaned with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals that might discolor or damage the material.
