Do the sizes vary?

Troubleshooting

Scuff marks on leather

Gently clean with a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth. For stubborn marks, consult specialized leather cleaners, testing on an inconspicuous area first.

Gum sole discolouration

Discolouration can sometimes occur due to UV exposure or certain chemicals. Clean gently with a soft brush. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight.

Poor fit

Ensure you selected the correct UK size. If the fit is still uncomfortable, consider if the shoe's width or shape is not suitable for your foot type. Returns or exchanges may be possible following the company's policy, which often requires unpacking videos.
