Troubleshooting
Slight creasing on leather upper
Creasing is natural with leather footwear. To minimize, ensure proper fit and avoid over-tightening laces. Store with shoe trees or stuffing.
Color transfer from one side to the other
This is unlikely with proper manufacturing, but if experienced, try cleaning with a leather cleaner specifically designed for colorfastness. Avoid prolonged exposure to moisture.
Laces fraying
Replace laces with new ones of similar material and length. Keep laces tied loosely when not in use to reduce stress.
