Troubleshooting

Suede appears dirty or stained

Use a suede brush to gently remove dry dirt. For tougher stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner, following product instructions, and test on a small area first. Avoid water.

Laces are difficult to tighten evenly

Ensure laces are threaded through eyelets correctly. Try lacing them from the bottom up, ensuring even tension at each stage. Adjusting the lacing pattern can also help.

Sole feels slippery on certain surfaces

New soles can sometimes have a slick coating. Wear them for a short period on rougher surfaces like concrete to scuff them slightly. Ensure the sole is clean and dry.

Discomfort after extended wear

Ensure the correct size has been selected. Break in the shoes gradually by wearing them for shorter periods initially. Consider using insoles for added cushioning if needed.
