Troubleshooting
Suede appears matted or dirty
Use a suede brush to restore the nap. For stains, use a specialized suede cleaner and follow product instructions carefully.
Mesh feels less breathable over time
Ensure the mesh is clean. Gently wipe with a damp cloth and allow to air dry. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Midsole cushioning feels less responsive
The cushioning is designed for lifestyle wear and may naturally decrease with extensive use. Ensure the shoes are clean and dry.
Laces becoming worn
Replace laces with standard flat laces. Ensure they are threaded correctly through the eyelets.
