Troubleshooting

Shoes feel stiff upon first wear.

This is common with new leather and suede. Wear them for short periods initially to break them in gradually. Using a leather conditioner can also help soften the material.

Suede appears matted or dirty.

Use a suede brush to gently restore the nap. For tougher dirt, a specialized suede cleaner can be applied sparingly, followed by brushing.

Leather scuffs or marks appear.

For minor scuffs on leather, try buffing with a soft, dry cloth. For deeper marks, a leather repair balm or cream in a matching color may be needed.

Slight discoloration after getting wet.

Allow shoes to dry naturally away from heat. Once dry, use appropriate leather and suede care products to restore color and texture. Avoid prolonged exposure to moisture.
