Troubleshooting

Suede appears dirty or stained.

Gently brush the suede with a suede brush. For stains, use a specialized suede cleaner, always testing on a small area first. Avoid excessive moisture.

Leather accents look scuffed.

Use a leather cleaner and conditioner. For minor scuffs, a shoe polish of the corresponding color might help.

Velcro strap loses grip.

Clean the hook-and-loop surfaces of the Velcro strap with a small brush to remove any debris that might be preventing a secure closure.

Tread pattern is worn down.

This indicates normal wear and tear. While not repairable, extending the life of the shoe can be done by avoiding excessive wear on abrasive surfaces and ensuring proper cleaning.

Care: To maintain the appearance of the suede and leather, it is recommended to:

  • Laces: Remove laces and wash them separately by hand or in a garment bag in the washing machine.
  • Outsole: Clean the rubber outsole with a damp cloth or a soft brush.
  • Storage: Store the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, preferably in their original box or a shoe bag, to prevent dust and damage.
