Troubleshooting

Sizing feels slightly off

Ensure you are wearing the type of socks you would typically wear with sneakers. If still uncomfortable, consider trying a half-size up or down, as fit can vary slightly.

Leather appears dry or dull

Apply a small amount of leather conditioner using a soft cloth. Allow it to absorb, then buff gently.

Creases forming on the toe box

This is natural with wear, especially on leather shoes. To minimize excessive creasing, use shoe trees when not wearing the sneakers.
