Troubleshooting
Discomfort or rubbing
Ensure the correct size is selected. Break in the shoes gradually by wearing them for short periods initially. Consider using thicker socks if the fit is slightly loose.
Suede looks dull or dirty
Use a suede brush to restore the nap and remove light dust. For stains, use a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner, following product instructions carefully.
Laces fraying
Replace laces with a new pair of the same length and material. Consider waxed laces for increased durability.

Compatibility:

Care Instructions:
- Suede: To clean suede, use a soft brush or a specialized suede eraser to remove dirt and stains. Avoid getting the suede wet. For tougher marks, a slightly damp cloth can be used cautiously, followed by air drying.
- Mesh: Spot clean mesh areas with a mild detergent and cool water. A soft brush can help lift dirt.
- Sole: Wipe down the sole with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals that could degrade the rubber.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using a shoe tree can help maintain their shape.
