Troubleshooting
Shoes feel stiff initially
This is common with handmade canvas shoes. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time as they break in.
Color appears slightly different from the image
Natural materials and dyes can cause minor color variations. This is a characteristic of handmade products.
Canvas becoming wet in heavy rain
The canvas upper is not waterproof. For very wet conditions, consider using a water-repellent spray suitable for canvas, or opt for weather-specific footwear.
Sole appears to have minor imperfections
The vulcanisation marks are intentional and a sign of authentic Novesta handmade construction. Minor variations are normal.
