Troubleshooting
Color bleeding on materials
This can occur with dyed materials. Ensure shoes are dry before prolonged contact with lighter fabrics. Clean gently with a damp cloth, avoiding excessive moisture.
Velour material becoming matted
Use a soft suede brush to gently lift and restore the nap of the velour. Avoid pressing down too hard.
Denim or canvas showing scuffs
For light scuffs, try a soft eraser. For deeper marks, a gentle cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap may be necessary. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.
