Troubleshooting
Laces fraying or breaking
Replace laces with standard Converse laces or any suitable shoelace. Consider waxing laces for increased durability.
Discoloration of the animal print
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Clean gently with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary, testing on an inconspicuous area first.
Soles becoming detached
For minor detachment, a strong adhesive specifically designed for rubber and canvas can be used as a temporary fix. For significant detachment, professional repair or replacement may be necessary.
