Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable.
Ensure you have the correct size. Try adjusting the lacing; sometimes loosening the bottom laces can provide more room. Allow for a brief break-in period, as materials may soften with wear.
Suede looks dull or dirty.
Use a specialized suede brush to restore the nap and remove surface dirt. For deeper stains, use a suede cleaner specifically designed for the material, following product instructions carefully.
Shoes make squeaking noises.
This can sometimes be caused by moisture between the insole and outsole. Try removing the insoles and sprinkling a small amount of talcum powder or baking soda inside the shoe, then reinserting the insoles. If the squeak persists, it might be a manufacturing issue.
General dirt and grime buildup.
For mesh and leather sections, wipe with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. For persistent dirt, use a soft brush. Always air dry.
