Creasing on leather

Minor creasing is natural with leather. To minimize, avoid tightly lacing the shoes and consider using shoe trees when not in use.

Discoloration from sunlight

Store shoes away from direct sunlight. If discoloration occurs, it may be difficult to reverse; focus on preventative storage.

Difficulty finding a specific size

Check secondary markets or sneaker resale platforms. Be aware of authenticity and pricing when purchasing from unofficial sources.
