Troubleshooting
Suede appears dirty or stained.
Use a suede eraser for dry marks and a dedicated suede cleaner for stains. Always test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first and allow to dry completely away from direct heat.
Laces are frayed or dirty.
Remove laces and hand wash them with mild soap and water. Replace if significantly damaged.
Reduced grip on slick surfaces.
Ensure the outsole is clean from debris. For persistent issues, consider the conditions; the multi-pattern outsole is designed for general use, not extreme conditions.
