Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure the correct size was purchased. Loosen the laces to allow for more room. If still uncomfortable, consider trying a half-size up or a different model.
Sole feels stiff
New shoes may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially to allow the materials to adapt to the foot.
Discoloration on upper material
Gently wipe the affected area with a damp cloth. For stubborn marks, use a mild leather cleaner suitable for children's footwear, testing on an inconspicuous area first.
Laces fraying or breaking
Replace laces with a new pair of suitable length and material. Consider opting for more durable lace types.
