Troubleshooting
Slight creasing on plush upper
Minor creasing can occur with normal wear. Avoid over-stuffing shoes when storing. For significant creasing, shoe trees can help maintain shape.
Discoloration on plush material
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or abrasive surfaces. Clean gently with a damp cloth as per care instructions.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces
Ensure soles are clean and free from debris. The grip may vary on wet or highly polished surfaces. Consider specialized grip enhancers if needed for specific environments.
