Troubleshooting

Shoes feel slightly tight on first wear.

Leather will naturally stretch and mold to your foot. Wear them for short periods initially, and consider using a thin sock. The adjustable strap can also provide some immediate relief.

Arch support feels too pronounced initially.

The VIO MOTION Technology is designed to support the natural alignment of your foot. If the arch feels too strong, give your feet a few days to adapt. You can also try wearing them for shorter durations initially.

Metallic finish appears scuffed or dulled.

Gently buff the affected area with a soft, dry cloth. For more persistent scuffs, use a specialized leather cleaner for metallic finishes, testing on an inconspicuous area first.

Buckle strap is difficult to fasten.

Ensure the strap is aligned correctly with the buckle. If there's resistance, check for any debris caught in the buckle mechanism.
