Troubleshooting
Uneven lacing
Loosen all laces and re-lace from the bottom, ensuring equal tension at each eyelet as you work upwards.
Squeaking sound
This can sometimes occur with new leather shoes. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder under the insole or check if the laces are rubbing against the tongue.
Leather creasing
Creasing is natural for leather. To minimize its appearance, use shoe trees when not wearing them and avoid over-tightening laces.

- Suede/Nubuck (if applicable to specific colorways): Use a specialized suede brush to remove dirt and maintain texture. Avoid water on suede/nubuck areas.
