Troubleshooting
Leather creasing or scuffing
Minor creases are natural with leather wear. For scuffs, try using a leather conditioner or a specialized leather cleaner. Avoid exposing the shoes to excessive moisture or rough surfaces.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces
The espadrille and rubber combination provides moderate traction. If experiencing slipperiness on very smooth or wet surfaces, exercise caution. Ensure the soles are clean, as dirt buildup can affect grip.
Discomfort after initial wear
New leather shoes may require a break-in period. Wear them for short periods initially to allow them to conform to your foot shape. Ensure you have the correct size; if discomfort persists, consider trying a different size or width if available.
