Troubleshooting
Stiff initial feel
Synthetic suede may require a short break-in period. Wear the shoes for short durations initially to allow them to conform to your foot.
Squeaking sole
This can sometimes occur with new rubber soles. Ensure the sole is clean and dry. If the issue persists, a small amount of talcum powder under the insole might help.
Discoloration on synthetic suede
Use a specialized synthetic suede cleaner or a damp cloth with mild soap. Test any cleaning solution on an inconspicuous area first.
