Troubleshooting
Color transfer from University Red accents
This can sometimes occur with new, vibrant colors. Allow the shoes to air out. If it persists, avoid wearing them with very light-colored socks initially and be mindful of moisture, which can exacerbate color transfer.
Velvet material looking matted or dirty
Use a soft-bristled brush (like a suede brush) to gently lift the nap of the velvet. For dirt, spot clean with a slightly damp cloth and allow to air dry naturally away from direct heat or sunlight.
Fit feels too snug or loose
Adjust the lacing. For a snugger fit, ensure the lacing wings are tightened evenly. For a looser fit, loosen the laces, particularly around the midfoot. Ensure you have selected the correct UK size for your foot.
