Troubleshooting

Suede looks dull or dirty

Use a suede brush to lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For stubborn marks, consult a specialized suede cleaner and follow its instructions carefully.

Footbed feels stiff initially

The cork-latex footbed is designed to mold to your foot over time. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time to allow them to break in.

Straps feel too tight or loose

Adjust the metal buckles on each strap to achieve a secure and comfortable fit. Ensure the buckles are properly engaged.

Suede gets wet

Gently blot excess water with a dry cloth and allow the sandals to air dry completely away from direct heat or sunlight. Once dry, use a suede brush to restore the texture.
