Troubleshooting

Suede appears dirty or stained

Use a specialized suede cleaner and a soft brush. For stubborn stains, a slightly damp cloth can be used with caution. Always test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first.

Laces are difficult to tie securely

Ensure laces are threaded correctly through the eyelets. If laces are worn, consider replacing them with new ones for better grip.

Discomfort during wear

Ensure the correct size is being worn. Break in the shoes gradually by wearing them for short periods initially. Check that the lacing provides adequate support without being too tight.

Tread wear on the outsole

The trail-inspired lug outsole is designed for durability but will show wear over time with heavy use. For excessive wear affecting grip, consider replacing the shoes.
