Troubleshooting
Suede looks dull or dirty.
Gently brush the suede with a dry suede brush to remove loose dirt and restore the nap. For stubborn stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner and protector, following the product instructions carefully.
Trainers feel less comfortable or supportive over time.
Ensure the laces are tied securely to provide optimal foot support. Check the condition of the insole; if it's compressed or worn out, consider replacing it with a new, cushioned insole suitable for youth trainers.
Poor grip on certain surfaces.
Inspect the rubber sole for excessive wear or embedded debris. Clean the sole thoroughly to remove any dirt, mud, or small stones that might be reducing traction. If the sole tread is significantly worn, it may be time to consider new footwear.
