Troubleshooting
Suede losing its texture
Use a dedicated suede brush to restore the nap. For stubborn marks, a suede eraser can be effective. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Discomfort during extended wear
Ensure the correct size is being worn. Break in the shoes gradually with short periods of wear. Consider using aftermarket insoles for personalized cushioning.
Midsole scuffs or marks
Gently clean the affected area with a damp cloth and mild soap. For persistent marks, a magic eraser can sometimes be used cautiously on non-suede parts.
Laces becoming dirty
Remove laces and hand-wash them in cold water with a small amount of detergent. Allow them to air dry completely before re-lacing.
