Troubleshooting

Light-colored upper shows dirt easily.

Regularly wipe down the shoes after wear. For visible dirt, use a soft cloth with mild soap and water to spot clean. For deeper stains on leather, use appropriate leather cleaner.

Shoes develop an odor after wear.

Ensure shoes are fully aired out between wears. Remove insoles if possible to allow them to dry. Use shoe deodorizers or natural alternatives like baking soda packets to absorb moisture and neutralize odors.

Difficulty cleaning textured materials.

Use different tools for different textures: a soft bristled brush for nylon, a specialized nubuck brush for nubuck leather, and a soft cloth for smooth leather and synthetic areas. Always test cleaning solutions on an inconspicuous area first.
