Troubleshooting

Patent leather creasing

Minor creasing is natural with wear. Avoid bending the shoes excessively when not wearing them. Store them with shoe trees if possible.

Scuffs on patent leather

For light scuffs, try a specialized patent leather cleaner or a soft cloth lightly dampened with water. For deeper marks, professional shoe restoration might be necessary.

Discomfort due to fit

Ensure the correct UK size has been selected. Consider using thinner or thicker socks to adjust fit slightly. If discomfort persists, the shoe may not be the right fit for your foot shape.
