Troubleshooting
Suede appears discolored or dirty.
Use a dedicated suede brush to remove surface dirt. For stains, apply a specialized suede cleaner following product instructions. Avoid using water on suede unless specified by a cleaning product.
Shoe feels stiff or uncomfortable.
Wear the shoes for short periods initially to break them in. The padded collar should offer comfort; ensure laces are adjusted correctly without being too tight.
Tread is losing grip.
Clean the waffle pattern on the sole to remove any embedded debris that might be affecting traction. Ensure the rubber is not excessively worn.
Shoe shape is distorted.
Avoid storing heavy items on top of the shoes. Use shoe trees or stuff them with paper when not in use to help maintain their shape.
