Are these sneakers made in Europe?

Troubleshooting
Squeaking sound from soles
This can sometimes occur with new rubber soles. Walking in them more can often resolve this. Ensure the sole is clean and dry.
Leather creasing or scuffing
Minor creasing is natural with leather. Use a leather conditioner to keep the leather supple and prevent excessive creasing. For scuffs, use a matching color polish or a dedicated leather eraser.
Discomfort during initial wear
Premium leather often requires a break-in period. Wear the shoes for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time as they soften and conform to your feet.
