Troubleshooting

Creasing on leather or suede

Some creasing is natural with leather and suede. To minimize, use shoe trees when not in use and store properly. Avoid excessive bending.

Suede appears dull or dirty

Gently brush the suede with a suede brush to restore its nap. For tougher stains, use a specialized suede cleaner and follow product instructions carefully.

Laces fraying or breaking

Replace laces with a similar material and color. Cream-colored laces can be purchased from specialty shoe stores or online retailers.

Sole becoming detached

This indicates a significant defect. Contact customer support or a professional cobbler for repair. Avoid wearing if the sole is severely compromised.
