Troubleshooting

Fit feels too tight or too loose

Adjust the lacing system to find a more secure or relaxed fit. Ensure you are using the correct shoe size; consider the specific sizing of this model.

Squeaking noise during walking

This can sometimes occur with new leather shoes. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder under the insole or checking for any loose components. Ensure the insole is properly seated.

Material scuffing or minor damage

For minor scuffs on leather, use a leather cleaner or conditioner. For foam areas, a damp cloth usually suffices. Address damage promptly to prevent further wear.
