Troubleshooting

Creasing on the upper

This is a natural occurrence with wear. To minimize creasing, ensure proper fit and consider using shoe trees when storing.

Swoosh logo peeling

Handle with care during cleaning. If minor peeling occurs, a small amount of shoe glue designed for fabric and rubber can be applied carefully.

Discoloration of white midsole

Clean the midsole regularly with a damp cloth. For stubborn yellowing, specialized sole brighteners can be used cautiously, following product instructions.

Laces fraying

Replace frayed laces with new ones. Ensure they are tied securely but not excessively tight to avoid undue stress.
