Troubleshooting
Squeaking sound from sole
This can sometimes occur due to air trapped in the sole. Try flexing the shoe gently. Ensure the insoles are properly seated. If persistent, it might be a manufacturing anomaly.
Discomfort during initial wear
The shoes may require a break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time. Ensure you have the correct size and consider using thicker or thinner socks as needed.
Color transfer from accents
In rare cases, the 'Persian Violet' dye might transfer to lighter socks, especially when new and wet. Avoid prolonged exposure to moisture and wear with darker socks initially.

Care Instructions:
