Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable
Ensure you have selected the correct size. The unique construction may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time.
Suede looks dull or dirty
Use a suede brush to gently remove surface dirt. For tougher marks, try a suede eraser. Always brush in one direction once clean to restore nap.
Cushioning feels too firm initially
The ABZORB and SBS cushioning may feel firm when new. Consistent wear will break in the materials, enhancing softness and responsiveness.
