Troubleshooting
Shoe feels tight or uncomfortable
Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring they are not overtightened. Consider wearing with appropriate socks. If discomfort persists after initial wear, the fit may not be suitable.
Canvas upper shows dirt or stains
Gently wipe the affected area with a damp cloth and mild soap. For stubborn stains, a specialized canvas cleaner can be used, but always test in an inconspicuous spot first. Allow to air dry.
Gum outsole appears worn
Minor scuffing is normal with wear. For deeper marks, a rubber eraser or specialized sole cleaner can help restore appearance. Ensure the sole is kept clean to maintain grip.
