FAQs

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Ensure you have the correct size. Wear with thinner socks or try a shoe stretcher for minor adjustments.

Suede material looks dull or dirty

Use a dedicated suede brush or eraser to lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For stubborn stains, consult a professional cleaner or use a specialized suede cleaner sparingly.

Traction seems reduced on wet surfaces

The rubber outsole provides good grip, but caution is advised on very wet or slippery surfaces. Ensure the outsole is clean of debris.
