Troubleshooting
Difficulty zipping up
Ensure laces are loosened before using the zip. Check the zip track for any debris or obstructions. Gently pull the zip up while holding the material taut.
Suede becoming stiff after getting wet
Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat. Once dry, use a suede brush to restore the nap. Consider applying a suede protector spray to prevent future stiffness.
Lining not feeling warm enough
Ensure the socks worn are appropriate for cold weather. Check that the shoe fit is snug, as a loose fit can allow cold air to enter. The lining is designed for moderate cold; consider thicker socks for extreme temperatures.
Water seeping through
The trainers are water-resistant, not waterproof. For heavy rain, consider alternative footwear. Reapply a suede waterproofing treatment to enhance protection.
