Troubleshooting
Faint odor from faux leather
Air the shoes out in a well-ventilated area for a day or two. You can also place baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb odors.
Suede t-toe appears dirty or matted
Use a suede brush to gently lift and clean the nap. For deeper stains, consider a specialized suede cleaner, following product instructions carefully.
Shoe feels slightly stiff initially
Wear the shoes around the house for short periods to break them in. The faux leather and woven materials will naturally soften with wear.
Laces becoming dirty
Remove the laces and wash them separately by hand with mild soap and water, or machine wash them in a garment bag. Allow them to dry completely before re-lacing.
