Troubleshooting
Shoe feels too tight or stiff initially
Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow the canvas to break in and mold to your foot shape. Consider wearing thicker socks during the break-in period.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces
Ensure the rubber soles are clean. For new shoes, a slight break-in period might improve grip. For very smooth or wet surfaces, exercise caution.
Canvas shows signs of dirt or scuff marks
Spot clean immediately with a damp cloth. For stubborn marks, use a specialized sneaker cleaner or a mild soap solution, testing on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid machine washing.
