Troubleshooting
Suede appears dull or dirty
Gently brush the suede with a suede brush to restore its texture and remove surface dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a dedicated suede cleaner according to product instructions.
Leather creasing excessively
Normal creasing is expected with leather. To minimize it, ensure proper fit and consider using shoe trees when not in use.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces
Ensure the rubber outsole is clean and free from debris. For very smooth or wet surfaces, exercise caution, as with any casual sneaker.
Color transfer from blue to socks or light-colored trousers
This can occur with new, dark-colored footwear. It's recommended to wear darker socks initially and consider a protective spray for suede and leather, following manufacturer guidelines.
