Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable.
Allow for a break-in period of several wears. Ensure you have the correct size and width. Wearing them with appropriate socks can also affect comfort.
Suede appears matted or dirty.
Use a dedicated suede brush to lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For stubborn stains, consult a suede cleaner.
Laces are difficult to tie or keep tied.
Ensure laces are threaded correctly. Try a different lacing technique or double knotting. Consider replacing laces if they are worn out.
Sole feels stiff.
The shoe's construction includes robust cushioning and support structures. Continue to wear them to allow the materials to flex and mold to your foot.

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for adult unisex wear and are compatible with standard UK and international sizing. They are versatile for pairing with a wide range of casual apparel.
