Troubleshooting
Discomfort or poor fit
Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. Try wearing them with different types of socks. Break them in gradually by wearing them for short periods.
Leather creasing excessively
This is a natural characteristic of leather. Use shoe trees when not in use to help maintain shape. Avoid over-tightening laces.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces
Ensure the soles are clean and free from debris. If the issue persists, consider a professional assessment or explore shoe sole treatments designed for grip.
Stains on the leather or suede
Address stains immediately using a specialized leather cleaner and a soft cloth. For stubborn stains, consult a professional shoe cleaner.
