Troubleshooting
Laces fraying or breaking
Replace with a new pair of laces. Consider using waxed laces for increased durability.
Leather creasing excessively
This is natural with wear. To minimize deep creases, use shoe trees when not in use and avoid bending the shoe excessively during wear.
Slight discoloration after cleaning
Ensure you are using a cleaner appropriate for the specific material (leather) and color. Test the cleaner on an inconspicuous area first. Always use a damp, not wet, cloth.
Reduced cushioning over time
The Air unit is designed for long-term performance, but cushioning may naturally decrease with extensive use. Consider rotating with other footwear.
