Troubleshooting
Leather appears dry or stiff
Apply a quality leather conditioner following the product instructions. Allow the conditioner to absorb before buffing.
Scuff marks or minor scratches on the leather
For light scuffs, try gently buffing with a soft cloth. For deeper marks, a leather repair balm or cream matching the shoe color might be necessary. Test any product on a small, hidden area first.
Laces are frayed or worn
Replace the laces with new ones of a similar length and material. Many shoe repair shops or department stores carry replacement laces.
Discomfort during initial wear
Leather footwear often requires a break-in period. Wear the shoes for short periods initially, gradually increasing wear time. Wearing them with socks can help speed up the process and prevent blisters.
