Troubleshooting
Discoloration on white leather
Gently clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Test any cleaning solution on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Traction seems reduced
Ensure the herringbone pattern on the outsole is free from debris. Clean with a damp cloth and a soft brush.
Yellow sockliner staining
Avoid prolonged contact with dark or wet materials that could transfer color. Spot clean gently with a damp cloth if needed.
Fit seems tight
Allow a break-in period. Wear the shoes for short periods initially. Ensure you have the correct size by checking sizing charts.
