Troubleshooting
Shoe feels too tight or uncomfortable
Ensure you have the correct size and width. Try wearing them with different types of socks. Break them in gradually by wearing them for short periods initially.
Suede material shows water spots or stains
Allow the shoes to air dry completely. Use a suede eraser to gently lift stains. For persistent marks, consider a specialized suede cleaner, following product instructions carefully and testing on an inconspicuous area first.
Laces are dirty or frayed
Clean laces by hand-washing with mild soap and water, then air dry. If frayed, they can be replaced with similar New Balance laces or generic trainer laces.
