Are they true to size?
Sizing can vary slightly between individuals. It is recommended to consult a size chart and consider your usual fit preferences. Some users find a short break-in period helps achieve a perfect fit.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Wear them with medium-thickness socks for a short period to allow them to naturally stretch. If they remain uncomfortable, consider trying a half-size larger.
Laces fraying or breaking
Replace laces with a similar material and length. Avoid excessively tight lacing which can put undue stress on the eyelets and laces.
Slight creasing on the upper
Creasing is a natural part of wear for leather shoes. To minimize it, ensure proper fit and avoid over-tightening laces. Using shoe trees when storing can also help maintain shape.
