Troubleshooting
Discomfort or rubbing
Ensure the laces are adjusted for a snug but not overly tight fit. Wear with appropriate socks. If the issue persists, consider if the size is correct or if the shoe requires a brief break-in period.
Slight stiffness in leather
Leather can stiffen if exposed to moisture or prolonged dryness. Condition the leather gently with a suitable leather conditioner after cleaning, following product instructions.
