Troubleshooting
Suede losing its texture
Gently brush the suede with a suede brush in one direction to restore its nap. For matted areas, try brushing more vigorously or using a suede eraser.
Laces becoming worn or dirty
Replace laces with new ones of a similar style and length. Clean existing laces by hand washing with mild soap and water.
Rubber sole showing significant scuffs
Minor scuffs can often be buffed out with a soft cloth. For deeper marks, a rubber cleaner or a magic eraser might be cautiously used, testing on an inconspicuous area first.
Foot discomfort after a few hours
Ensure the correct size has been selected. Consider using insoles or thicker socks for added cushioning if needed, though these trainers are designed for basic comfort.
