Troubleshooting
Suede appears dirty or stained
Use a suede eraser for light marks or a specialized suede cleaner for tougher stains. Always test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid water-based cleaners on suede.
Laces are worn or frayed
Replace laces with a similar style and length. You can find replacement laces at most shoe stores or online retailers.
Sole feels slippery
Ensure the rubber sole is clean and free from debris. If the slipperiness persists, the sole may be worn down and may require professional inspection or replacement.
