Troubleshooting
Suede appears dirty or stained
Gently brush the affected area with a suede brush. For stubborn stains, use a specialized suede cleaner and a damp cloth, testing on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive water.
Yellow accents showing wear
Minor scuffs on the yellow midsole can sometimes be cleaned with a magic eraser, but use very light pressure to avoid damaging the material. For deeper marks, professional cleaning might be necessary.
Laces becoming dirty
Remove laces and hand wash them with mild soap and water. Allow them to air dry completely before re-lacing the shoes.
Fit feels slightly snug initially
The nubuck material will naturally mold to your foot with wear. Wear them around the house for short periods to break them in. If still uncomfortable after a few wears, consider if the true-to-size fit recommendation is accurate for your foot shape.
