Troubleshooting

Initial stiffness or discomfort

Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow them to break in and conform to your foot shape. Consider wearing thicker socks during the break-in phase.

Slipping on wet surfaces

The rubber outsole provides excellent grip on dry indoor surfaces. Exercise caution on wet or extremely smooth outdoor surfaces as traction may be reduced.

Color transfer from suede (if applicable)

For suede variants, protect with a suede protector spray. If color transfer occurs, clean gently with a suede brush or a damp cloth on non-suede areas.
