Troubleshooting
Tight fit on arrival
Loosen the laces and wear the shoes around the house to allow them to naturally conform to your foot shape. The comfort last and removable insole can help adjust the fit.
Slight stiffness in new leather
This is normal for new leather. Wear them regularly, and they will soften. You can also use a leather conditioner to help break them in.
Discoloration on the SOFTLIGHT sole
Wipe the sole with a damp cloth. Avoid exposing the SOFTLIGHT material to prolonged direct sunlight or harsh chemicals, which can cause discoloration.
Insole feels uncomfortable
Ensure the removable microfiber insole is correctly positioned. If it still feels uncomfortable, consider replacing it with your preferred custom insole.
