Troubleshooting
Suede discoloration after cleaning
Ensure you are using products specifically designed for suede and follow instructions carefully. Always test cleaning solutions on an inconspicuous area first. Allow to air dry completely.
Reduced cushioning or support over time
The cushioning may naturally compress with extensive use. To maximize longevity, avoid using the sneakers for high-impact sports and follow recommended care instructions.
Fraying of mesh or stitching
Gently trim any loose threads with scissors. If the fraying is significant, professional repair may be needed.
Poor traction on wet surfaces
While the outsole provides grip, be cautious on very wet or slick surfaces. Ensure the outsole is free of debris for optimal traction.
