Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Loosen the laces and re-tie, ensuring not to overtighten. If the tightness persists after a break-in period, consider if this is the correct size for your foot shape.

Squeaking noise when walking

This can sometimes occur with new leather shoes. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder under the insole or ensuring all parts of the shoe are dry.

Difficulty pulling the shoe on

Utilize the pull tab at the heel. Ensure the tongue is fully extended and the laces are sufficiently loosened before slipping your foot in.

Scuff marks on the leather/nubuck

For minor scuffs, use a nubuck eraser. For deeper marks, consult a professional shoe repair service or use a colored shoe cream specifically designed for nubuck and leather.
