Troubleshooting

Suede appears scuffed or dirty

Gently brush the affected area with a suede brush. For stubborn marks, use a suede eraser. Test any cleaning method on an inconspicuous area first.

Laces are difficult to tie or come undone

Ensure laces are of the correct length and material. Re-tie the laces using a secure knot, such as a double knot, if they frequently come undone.

Discomfort after wearing

Ensure you have the correct size. Break in the shoes by wearing them for short periods initially. Consider using insoles for added cushioning if needed.

Colour fading

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Store the shoes in a dark place when not in use.
