Troubleshooting

Sizing feels too tight or loose

Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. The fit can be personalized slightly with lacing techniques. If persistently uncomfortable, consider exchanging for a different size if available.

Color transfer from denim or dark clothing

This is a rare occurrence with quality manufacturing, but if it happens, clean the affected area immediately with a damp cloth and mild sneaker cleaner. Avoid prolonged contact between dark wet fabrics and the light-colored shoe.

Creasing on the nylon or leather upper

Creasing is natural with wear. To minimize excessive creasing, use shoe trees when storing the sneakers and avoid overly tight lacing.
