Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Ensure you have selected the correct size. Wear the shoes indoors for short periods to break them in. Lacing techniques can also be adjusted for a more personalized fit.

Suede appears dirty or matted

Use a suede brush to gently restore the nap. For stubborn stains, consult a specialized leather and suede cleaner, testing on an inconspicuous area first.

Traction feels reduced

Check the rubber outsole for embedded debris or excessive wear. Clean the outsole with a damp cloth. If significantly worn, replacement may be necessary.

Discomfort after prolonged wear

Verify the correct size and fit. Ensure socks are appropriate. The shoes may require a longer break-in period, or consider using insoles for additional support if needed.

Care Instructions:
