For light scuffs, try gently buffing with a soft, dry cloth. For deeper marks, consult a professional leather repair specialist.
Discomfort during the first few wears
Leather shoes often require a break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time. Consider using padded inserts if needed.
