Troubleshooting

Suede appears discolored or stained

Use a suede brush to lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For stains, consult a specialized suede cleaner and follow its instructions carefully. Test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first.

Shoes feel too tight

Ensure you have selected the correct size. If the issue persists, consider using a shoe stretcher or wearing thinner socks. The slim profile is inherent to the design.

Mesh panels look dirty

Wipe gently with a slightly damp cloth. For more persistent marks, use a mild soap solution with water and a soft brush, then air dry.
