Troubleshooting
Laces fraying or breaking
Replace with new laces. Ensure they are tied appropriately without excessive force.
Discomfort during initial wear
The shoes may need a break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time. Ensure the lacing is not too tight.
Scuff marks on leather
Use a leather cleaner or a mild soap solution with a soft cloth to gently remove scuff marks. A leather conditioner can help maintain the material's appearance.
Squeaking noise
This can sometimes occur with new leather shoes. It often resolves with wear. Ensure no debris is trapped within the sole.
