Troubleshooting
Sandal feels too tight or loose
Adjust the rip tape fastening and the buckle strap to achieve a comfortable and secure fit. The rip tape allows for micro-adjustments.
Discomfort after prolonged wear
Ensure the fastening is correctly adjusted. If discomfort persists, consider that the platform heel height or standard width may not be ideal for your specific needs.
Suede material looks dull or stained
Use a suede brush to restore the nap. For stubborn stains, consult a specialist suede cleaner and follow product instructions carefully. Applying a suede protector can prevent future stains.
Sole shows signs of wear
Regularly clean the PU sole. If significant wear or damage occurs, consult a shoe repair professional for potential resoling, though this is not typically recommended for this type of footwear.
