Troubleshooting
Uneven lacing tension
Loosen all laces, then re-tie, ensuring consistent tension across all eyelets. Adjust the tongue for central positioning.
Suede appearing matted or dirty
Use a suede brush to restore the nap. For persistent dirt, use a suede eraser or a dedicated suede cleaning kit.
Creasing on the midsole
Minor creasing can occur with wear. To minimize, ensure proper fit and avoid over-tightening laces. Use shoe trees when not in use.
