Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight initially.
The leather upper may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially, gradually increasing wear time. Wearing them with slightly thicker socks can also help stretch them gently.
Leather creasing or scuffing.
Minor creasing is normal with leather. For scuffs, try a leather cleaner or conditioner. For deeper scuffs, a leather recoloring balm in a matching color might be effective.
Slight odor after wear.
Ensure shoes are aired out after each use. Use a shoe deodorizer or insert cedar shoe trees to absorb moisture and odor. Avoid storing in damp environments.
Traction feels reduced.
Check the rubber outsole for excessive wear or embedded debris. Clean the sole thoroughly. If the tread is significantly worn down, it may be time to consider replacement.
