Leather creasing or scuffing
Minor creases are natural with leather. For scuffs, use a specialized leather cleaner and a soft cloth. For deeper marks, consult a professional leather care service.
Slight color transfer
New leather items can sometimes transfer color, especially darker shades onto lighter fabrics. Allow the shoes to air out and consider using a leather protector. If significant, limit wear with light-colored socks or trousers initially.
Sole wear and tear
If the rubber sole shows significant wear, consider visiting a cobbler for sole repair or replacement to extend the life of the sneakers.
