Troubleshooting

Squeaking sound when walking

This can sometimes occur with new shoes due to friction. Try loosening or tightening the laces, or consider dusting the tongue and insole with talcum powder.

Dirt or scuff marks on nubuck

Use a dedicated nubuck eraser or a soft brush to gently remove marks. For stubborn stains, consider a specialized nubuck cleaner, testing on an inconspicuous area first.

Discomfort or rubbing

Ensure the correct size is being worn. Break in the shoes gradually by wearing them for short periods initially. Check that laces are not tied too tightly or too loosely.
