Troubleshooting

Creasing on leather

Creasing is natural with leather. To minimize, ensure proper fit and avoid over-stuffing shoes when storing. Using shoe trees can also help maintain shape.

Scuffs on the midsole or outsole

Use a magic eraser or a soft cloth with a gentle cleaning solution to carefully remove scuffs from rubber components.

Discoloration of white leather

Clean regularly with a leather cleaner. Store away from direct sunlight to prevent yellowing.
