Troubleshooting

Suede appears dirty or stained

Gently brush the suede with a suede brush. For tougher stains, use a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner. Always test cleaning products on an inconspicuous area first.

Leather shows scuffs or marks

Use a soft cloth to gently buff out minor scuffs. For more significant marks, a leather conditioner or cream may help restore the finish.

Shoes feel stiff or uncomfortable initially

Wear the trainers for short periods initially to allow them to break in. Wearing them with appropriate socks can also improve comfort.

Soles are dirty

Wipe the rubber soles with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Ensure they are completely dry before storing.
