Troubleshooting
Suede looking dull or dirty
Use a suede brush to gently restore the nap and remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, use a specialized suede cleaner following product instructions.
Leather creasing excessively
Creasing is natural with leather. To minimize it, ensure proper fit and consider using shoe trees when not in use to help maintain shape.
Reduced grip on the rubber sole
Ensure the sole is clean and free from debris. If the tread is significantly worn down, consider replacement, although this is unlikely with typical casual wear.
Discomfort or rubbing
Ensure you have the correct size. If new, break them in gradually. Wearing appropriate socks can also help prevent rubbing.
