Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Ensure you have the correct size. If slightly tight, wear with thin socks initially to allow for minor stretching or consider using a shoe stretcher.

Suede material looks worn or dirty

Use a suede brush to restore the nap. For stains, consult specialized suede cleaning products and follow their instructions carefully.

Traction seems reduced on wet surfaces

While the rubber outsole offers good grip, performance on extremely wet surfaces may be reduced. Ensure the outsole is clean and free from debris.
