Troubleshooting
Laces won't stay tied
Ensure laces are tied with a double knot. If laces are old or slippery, consider replacing them with a different material.
Discoloration on white leather
Use a specialized white leather cleaner and a soft cloth. For persistent marks, consult a professional shoe cleaner.
Sole feels stiff
Leather trainers with platform soles may require a break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time.
Pilling or wear on branding
Avoid abrasive cleaning methods. Gently wipe branding with a soft, damp cloth. Excessive rubbing can damage the printed or applied logos.
