Troubleshooting

Sizing feels incorrect despite ordering UK size

The product packaging or label might display US or European sizing which differs from UK sizing. Always refer to the UK size ordered and try them on to confirm fit before use.

Suede appears discolored or marked

Use a dedicated suede brush to gently remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, test a suede cleaner or a lightly dampened cloth in an inconspicuous area first. Allow to air dry completely.

Traction seems reduced

Ensure the natural rubber outsole is clean from excessive dirt or debris. A quick wipe with a damp cloth should restore grip.
