Troubleshooting
Tight fit upon first wear
Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow the materials to conform to your feet. Consider using thicker socks during these initial wears to help stretch them slightly.
Velvet material looks scuffed or matted
Use a soft, dry brush to gently lift the nap of the velvet. For minor scuffs, a slightly damp cloth can sometimes help restore the texture.
Discoloration of the blue or red accents
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Clean with a damp cloth only and ensure the shoes are completely dry before storing.
