Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight.
Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. For initial wear, the shoes may need a short break-in period. Loosen the laces and wear them for short durations.
Suede appears scuffed or dirty.
Use a suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For stubborn marks, try a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner, following product instructions.
Discoloration on suede.
Avoid exposing the shoes to excessive moisture or direct sunlight. If discoloration occurs due to water, allow them to air dry and then attempt to restore the color with a suede brush.
Mesh sections are dirty.
Gently wipe the mesh with a damp cloth and mild soap. Rinse the cloth and wipe again to remove soap residue. Ensure they air dry completely.
