Troubleshooting
Suede appears dull or dirty
Use a suede brush to restore the nap and remove surface dirt. For persistent marks, consult a specialized suede cleaner.
Laces come undone frequently
Ensure laces are tied securely using a double knot if necessary. Consider replacing laces if they are worn or slippery.
Discomfort after initial wear
Allow a break-in period of a few wears. Adjust lace tension and ensure the shoe fits correctly. If discomfort persists, the slim profile may not be suitable for your foot shape.
