Troubleshooting
Fit feels too tight or loose
Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. If the shoe is slightly tight, wearing thin socks or stretching them briefly may help. If too loose, consider using insoles or thicker socks.
Snakeskin pattern appears faded or damaged
This can occur with excessive wear or improper cleaning. Gently clean with a damp cloth and avoid harsh chemicals. For significant damage, professional restoration might be an option, but prevention is key.
Yellowing of the translucent sole
Some yellowing over time is natural for translucent soles due to oxidation. Gentle cleaning with a mild cleaner can help. Specialized 'sole brighteners' are available, but use with caution and follow instructions carefully.
Discomfort during prolonged wear
Ensure the laces are adjusted correctly for a snug but not overly tight fit. If discomfort persists, consider adding aftermarket insoles for extra cushioning and support.
