Troubleshooting

Stains on canvas upper

Gently clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. For stubborn stains, consider a specialized sneaker cleaner designed for canvas, testing on an inconspicuous area first.

Reduced grip on outsole

Clean the outsole with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris that may be affecting traction.

Creasing on toe box

Some creasing is natural with wear, especially on canvas. To minimize, ensure proper fit and consider using shoe trees when not in use.

Discoloration from sun exposure

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Store shoes in a dark, cool place when not being worn.
