Troubleshooting
Laces not staying tied
Ensure laces are double-knotted. Consider replacing laces if they are worn or slippery.
Suede appears matted or dirty
Use a dedicated suede brush to restore the nap. For stubborn marks, use a suede eraser or a slightly damp cloth with a mild cleaner, then allow to air dry and brush again.
Foot feels too tight
Loosen the laces, especially around the ankle area, to adjust the fit. Ensure you are using the correct shoe size; consult a sizing guide if unsure.
Discoloration on the gum sole
Minor scuffs can often be cleaned with a magic eraser or a damp cloth. For deeper stains, specialized sole cleaners might be needed.
