Troubleshooting
Shoes feel stiff on arrival.
Canvas and leather materials can stiffen during transit. Wear them around the house for short periods to break them in. The materials will soften with use.
Laces keep coming undone.
Ensure laces are tied securely using a double knot if necessary. Consider replacing laces with a type that offers better grip.
Difficulty getting the shoe on.
Loosen the laces and touch 'n' close straps fully before inserting the foot. Use the heel tab to help pull the shoe on.
Sole is slippery on certain surfaces.
Ensure the rubber outsole is clean and free from mud or debris. The grip may be reduced on very wet or polished surfaces.
