Troubleshooting
Laces fraying quickly
Inspect for sharp edges on the shoe's eyelets. If found, consider covering them or smoothing them down. Ensure laces are not tied too tightly, which can increase friction.
Reduced grip on the sole
Clean the outsole with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris that may be hindering traction. Ensure the surface you are skating on is clean.
Suede appearing worn or dirty
Use a suede brush to gently restore the nap. For stubborn marks, use a dedicated suede cleaner and follow the product's instructions carefully. Allow to air dry completely.
