Troubleshooting
Creasing on leather upper
Minor creasing is natural with leather. To minimize, avoid over-tightening laces and use shoe trees for storage. For significant creases, consider professional restoration services.
Discoloration of white midsole
Clean the midsole regularly with a damp cloth or a specialized sneaker cleaner. For stubborn yellowing, a mild solution of soap and water or a gentle magic eraser can be used with caution.
Elephant print wear and tear
Avoid abrasive contact. Clean gently with a soft brush. If the texture starts to flake, cease harsh cleaning and consult a professional restorer.
Lace fraying
Replace laces if they become significantly frayed. Ensure laces are not tied excessively tight, which can cause wear.
