Troubleshooting

Creasing on patent leather

Minimize creasing by avoiding excessive bending of the shoe. Store with shoe trees to help maintain shape. Minor creases may be unavoidable with wear.

Scuffs or marks on patent leather

Gently wipe with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher marks, use a specialized patent leather cleaner sparingly. Avoid abrasive materials.

Discoloration of the translucent sole

Keep the shoes away from prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can cause yellowing over time. Clean the sole with mild soap and water.

General wear and tear

Regular cleaning and proper storage will prolong the life of the trainers. For significant damage, consult a professional sneaker restoration service.
