Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight initially

Wear the shoes around the house for short periods to break them in. The suede and padding will mold to your foot shape over time.

Suede getting dirty or stained

Use a specialized suede eraser for marks. For general cleaning, a dry suede brush is effective. Address spills immediately with appropriate suede cleaning products.

Reduced grip on the sole

Clean the sole treads with a brush to remove embedded dirt or debris. Ensure the surface you are skating or walking on is dry and clean.

Compatibility: These shoes are designed for adult males and are suitable for skateboarding, casual wear, and general daily activities. They are not designed for high-impact sports or activities requiring specialized footwear.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning Suede: Use a suede brush to remove loose dirt and dust. For tougher stains, a suede cleaner or eraser can be used sparingly. Avoid washing the shoes with water, as this can damage the suede.
