Troubleshooting

Suede becoming stiff or discolored

Ensure the shoes are not exposed to excessive moisture or heat. Clean gently with a suede brush and consider applying a suede protector spray.

Laces fraying or breaking

Replace laces with standard sneaker laces. Ensure they are not tied too tightly to prevent unnecessary stress.

Outsole losing grip

Clean the rubber outsole with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris that may be affecting traction. For significant wear, replacement may be necessary.

Fit feels too tight

Wear with thin socks. If the shoe is consistently too tight, consider using a shoe stretcher or consulting a cobbler for potential stretching options. Note that the shoe has a naturally slim fit.

Care: To maintain the appearance and longevity of the suede upper:

  1. Brushing: Use a dedicated suede brush to remove surface dirt and dust regularly. Brush in one direction to maintain the nap.
