Troubleshooting

Creasing on the upper or midsole

Some creasing is natural with wear, especially on leather and Durabuck. To minimize visible creasing, consider using shoe trees when not in use and avoid overly tight lacing.

Dirt or scuffs on the Durabuck material

Gently use a suede brush or a dry, soft cloth to remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, use a specialized suede cleaner or a lightly dampened cloth, testing on an inconspicuous area first.

Yellowing of the translucent Air unit

Over time, the translucent nature of Air units can develop a slight yellowish tint due to oxidation. This is a normal aging process for the material and does not typically affect performance. Ensure they are stored properly away from sunlight.

Discoloration of the Elephant Print

The Elephant Print is a textured overlay. Clean gently with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive scrubbing which could damage the texture or color.
