Troubleshooting

Sizing confusion

Always refer to the UK size stated in the product title. The box or label may display US or EU sizing, which can differ. It is recommended to try the footwear on before returning if unsure about the fit.

Suede material appears dull

Use a dedicated suede brush to restore the nap and remove surface dust. For stubborn dirt, a specialized suede cleaner might be necessary, followed by brushing.

Traction feels reduced

Ensure the rubber outsole is clean and free from excessive mud or debris. For persistent issues, the outsole may show signs of wear and may need replacement by a professional cobbler.
