Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Wear them with thin socks initially and gradually increase sock thickness. If discomfort persists after a break-in period, consider a larger size.

Leather shows minor scuffs

Use a leather conditioner or a specialized leather cleaner to gently buff out minor scuffs. For deeper marks, consult a professional shoe repair service.

Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces

Ensure the soles are clean. If the issue persists, consider a professional application of sole grips or opt for a different shoe for extremely slick conditions.

Discoloration after cleaning

Ensure you are using cleaning products specifically designed for leather and follow instructions carefully. Always test cleaning solutions on an inconspicuous area first.
