Troubleshooting

Difficulty getting the foot into the shoe

Ensure the bungee laces are loosened as much as possible. Gently pull the tongue forward to create more space.

Suede looking matted or dirty

Use a suede brush to restore the nap. For persistent dirt, consult a suede cleaning guide for appropriate methods.

Shoe feels too tight or too loose

While bungee laces offer convenience, they have limited adjustability. Ensure the correct size was purchased. For minor adjustments, ensure the laces are evenly tensioned across the shoe.
