Troubleshooting

Squeaking sound when walking

This can sometimes occur with new leather shoes. Try walking on different surfaces or ensure laces are properly tied. If persistent, a small amount of talcum powder under the insole might help.

Leather appears dry or scuffed

Apply a small amount of leather conditioner or polish appropriate for the shoe's color. Use a soft cloth and buff gently. For scuffs, try a matching color polish.

Discoloration after cleaning

Ensure you are using cleaners specifically designed for leather and following care instructions. Always test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid over-saturating the material.

Care:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Wipe the leather upper gently with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. For stubborn marks, use a specialized leather cleaner sparingly.
  2. Cleaning the Midsole/Outsole: Use a soft brush or cloth to remove dirt. For tougher stains, a mild soap and water solution can be applied with a cloth, then wiped clean.
