Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Ensure laces are not over-tightened. If the issue persists, consider trying a half-size up or exploring models with a wider fit.

Suede material looks dull

Use a suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For tougher marks, consider a specialized suede cleaner, testing on an inconspicuous area first.

Reduced cushioning effect
