Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Wear thicker socks initially or use a shoe stretcher. Allow for a break-in period as the suede will naturally mold to your foot.
Suede looks dull or dirty
Use a suede brush to restore the nap. For stubborn marks, use a dedicated suede cleaner with a soft cloth, testing on an inconspicuous area first.
Laces fraying
Replace laces with standard shoe laces. Consider durable skate-specific laces for extended wear.
Sole feels slippery
Ensure the waffle sole is clean. For prolonged slippery conditions, consider alternative footwear or surface adjustments.
