Troubleshooting

Creasing on leather

Minor creasing is natural with leather footwear. To minimize, avoid tightly lacing the shoes and consider using shoe trees when not in use.

Color transfer from nubuck

In damp conditions, the purple nubuck may transfer color. Protect the shoes from excessive moisture and avoid wearing them with light-colored socks initially if color transfer is a concern.

Difficulty lacing

The eyelets are designed for standard lacing. If lacing is stiff, ensure the laces are not twisted and try a different lacing pattern.
