Troubleshooting
Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable
Allow for a break-in period of a few wears. Wear them with thicker socks initially or use shoe stretchers if necessary.
Suede material looks dirty or stained
Use a dedicated suede brush for dry dirt. For stains, test a cleaning solution on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid soaking the suede.
