Troubleshooting
Leather appears dry or stiff
Apply a quality leather conditioner to restore moisture and suppleness. Ensure you are not over-cleaning the leather.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces
Clean the soles to remove any accumulated dirt or debris that might be affecting grip. The lugged tread provides grip, but extreme conditions may still pose challenges.
Laces are difficult to tie or come undone
Ensure laces are threaded correctly through the eyelets and tied securely using a standard knot. If laces are worn, consider replacing them.
Color transfer from leather to socks
This can sometimes occur with new leather. Repeated wear and proper conditioning may reduce this. Ensure the shoes are fully dry before wearing.
