Troubleshooting
Squeaking noise from shoes
This can sometimes occur due to friction between shoe components or moisture. Try ensuring the insoles are properly seated or a small amount of powder (like talcum powder) under the insole might help.
Leather creasing excessively
Creasing is natural with leather. To minimize it, avoid over-tightening laces and consider using shoe trees when not in use. Proper fit is crucial; too tight a shoe will crease more readily.
Discoloration of white leather
Regular cleaning with appropriate leather cleaners is essential. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or harsh chemicals which can cause yellowing or discoloration.
