Troubleshooting
Suede appears dirty or stained.

Laces are worn or frayed.
Replace laces with a new pair of similar length and material to maintain the shoe's appearance and fit.
Traction feels reduced on wet surfaces.
The rubber outsole offers good grip, but performance on very wet surfaces may be limited. Dry the shoes thoroughly after exposure to moisture.
