Troubleshooting
Color transfer from faux horsehair or suede
Ensure shoes are dry before wearing. Avoid prolonged contact with light-colored fabrics, especially when wet. Consider using a protective spray designed for these materials.
Creasing on leather or suede
Creasing is natural with wear. To minimize it, ensure proper fit and consider using shoe trees when storing.
Dirt on the translucent outsole
Wipe clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could scratch the surface.
