Troubleshooting
Scuffs on patent leather
Gently buff the area with a soft, dry microfiber cloth. For persistent marks, a specialized patent leather cleaner can be used sparingly.
Reduced grip on the sole
Clean the rubber tread thoroughly with water and a soft brush to remove embedded dirt or debris.
Discomfort during extended wear
Ensure the correct size is being worn. Consider using supportive insoles if additional cushioning is desired, although the inherent design is for comfort.
