Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose
Adjust the lacing if applicable, or ensure the correct size was selected. The sock-like fit should be snug but not constricting.

Clean immediately with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight which can cause fading.
Pull tab feels stiff
The polyurethane pull tab may stiffen over time. Gently flex it by hand or use a leather conditioner sparingly if appropriate for the material.
