Troubleshooting

Suede appears dirty or stained.

Gently brush with a suede brush to remove surface dirt. For stubborn stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner following product instructions. Test any cleaner on an inconspicuous area first.

Shoe feels too tight or uncomfortable.

Ensure the shoe is properly laced to allow for foot expansion. If the issue persists, consider if this is the correct size or if a break-in period is needed for the materials.

Reduced traction on slippery surfaces.

Check the outsole for excessive wear or embedded debris. Clean the outsole treads. If the outsole is significantly worn down, replacement may be considered.

Mesh material looks worn or torn.

Avoid abrasive cleaning methods. Minor snags can sometimes be carefully smoothed. For significant tears, repair may be difficult and professional consultation is advised.
