Troubleshooting

Scuff marks on patent leather

Leather creasing

Creasing is natural with leather. Use shoe trees when not in use to help minimize deep creases. Avoid over-tightening laces.

Soles showing wear

Regular cleaning of the soles can prevent dirt buildup. For significant wear, consult a professional cobbler about potential sole repair or replacement.

Laces fraying
