Troubleshooting
Discomfort after wearing
Ensure you have the correct size. If the shoes are new, they may require a short break-in period. Consider using insoles for additional cushioning if needed.
Color transfer from materials
This can sometimes occur with new suede or darker leather elements. Allow the shoes to air out and consider using a suede protector spray. Avoid wearing them in wet conditions until the color transfer subsides.
Soles becoming detached
Minor detachments can sometimes be repaired with a suitable adhesive for footwear. For significant damage, professional repair may be necessary.
