Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. If still tight, wear with thinner socks or allow the leather to naturally stretch with wear.

Scuffs or marks on leather

Use a dedicated leather cleaner and a soft cloth to gently remove marks. For deeper scuffs, a leather repair kit might be necessary.

Discoloration of purple accents

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and excessive moisture, which can cause color fading or transfer. Clean with a damp cloth only.

Laces becoming dirty

Remove laces and hand wash with mild soap and water. Allow to air dry completely before re-lacing.
