Troubleshooting
Ponyhair appears matted or dirty
Gently brush the ponyhair with a soft brush to lift the fibers. For stubborn dirt, use a slightly damp cloth with a minimal amount of mild soap, then wipe clean and allow to air dry.
Shoes feel too tight
The elastic gussets allow for some stretch. Wear the shoes for short periods to break them in. Ensure you have selected the correct size; refer to sizing charts if unsure.
Sole grip is reduced
Clean the rubber sole with a damp cloth to remove any accumulated dirt or debris that may be affecting traction.
