Troubleshooting

Squeaking noise when walking

This can sometimes occur with new shoes. Try loosening the laces slightly, or apply a small amount of talcum powder under the insole if removable.

White canvas getting dirty easily

Regularly spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. For tougher stains, consider a specialized canvas cleaner or hand wash with cold water and mild detergent, then air dry.

Laces fraying or breaking

Replace laces with standard shoelaces of a similar length and material. You can find replacements at most shoe stores or online retailers.

Discomfort after initial wear

Allow a break-in period of a few wears. Ensure laces are adjusted correctly for a snug but not overly tight fit. If discomfort persists, the shoe may not be the right fit for your foot type.
