Troubleshooting

Slight discomfort on first wear

This is common with new footwear. Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow them to break in and conform to your feet.

Suede appears dirty or matted

Use a suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For stubborn marks, consider a specialized suede cleaner.

Traction feels reduced on wet surfaces

While the rubber outsole provides grip, performance on very wet surfaces can vary. Clean the outsole regularly to ensure optimal tread contact.
