Troubleshooting
Discomfort after initial wear
Ensure the laces are adjusted properly for a snug but not overly tight fit. Consider wearing them for short periods initially to allow them to break in.
Minor scuffs on the synthetic leather
Gently clean the affected area with a slightly damp cloth. For more stubborn marks, a specialized leather cleaner designed for synthetic materials may be used sparingly.
Squeaking sound during walking
This can sometimes be caused by friction within the shoe. Ensure the insole is properly seated and check if any part of the sole is loose. If the issue persists, consult with a footwear specialist.
