Troubleshooting
Canvas appears discolored after cleaning
Ensure you are using a mild soap and water solution. Avoid harsh detergents. Allow to air dry completely, as colors may appear different when wet.
Laces fraying or breaking
Replace laces with standard shoelaces. Consider waxing them for increased durability.
Sole losing grip over time
Ensure the sole is clean from debris. If wear is significant, consider professional shoe repair for sole replacement if possible, though this is generally not recommended for canvas trainers.
Discomfort after prolonged wear
Ensure the correct size is being worn. Consider using insoles for added cushioning if needed. Break in the shoes gradually by wearing them for shorter periods initially.
