Troubleshooting
Scuff marks on patent leather
For minor scuffs, try gently buffing with a soft cloth. A specialized patent leather cleaner or a small amount of petroleum jelly can sometimes help. For deeper scuffs, professional shoe repair may be necessary.
Buckle strap feels loose or too tight
Adjust the buckle to the appropriate hole for a secure yet comfortable fit. Ensure the strap is not overly strained.
Leather creasing
Some creasing is natural with leather. Ensure the shoes fit correctly to minimize excessive creasing in unwanted areas. Store them with shoe trees to help maintain shape.
Slight discomfort during initial wear
Wear the shoes for short periods indoors to allow them to mold to your feet. Wearing them with thin socks can also aid in the break-in process.
