Troubleshooting
Uneven lacing
Loosen the laces completely and re-lace the shoes, ensuring even tension throughout the eyelets.
Color transfer from darker clothing
This is a risk with vibrant leather. Ensure socks worn are of a similar color or darker, and consider using a leather protector spray.
Creasing on the leather
Some creasing is natural with leather. To minimize, use shoe trees when not in use and avoid overly tight lacing.
Dirt accumulation in midsole details
Use a soft brush (like a toothbrush) with a mild cleaning solution to carefully remove dirt from the shark-tooth details and grooves.
