Troubleshooting
Squeaking noise when walking
This can sometimes occur with new shoes. Try wearing them for a few more sessions, or a light dusting of baby powder inside the shoe might help.
Discoloration on nubuck
Nubuck is susceptible to stains. Address spills immediately with a specialized nubuck cleaner and brush. Avoid exposure to water or oily substances.
Reduced cushioning over time
The EVA midsole will naturally compress with extensive use. For optimal comfort, consider rotating with other footwear for daily wear.
