Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure you have selected the correct size. If still tight, break them in gradually over short periods. Laces can be adjusted for a looser fit.
Traction feels reduced
Clean the sole of any accumulated mud or debris. Ensure the sole is not excessively worn.
Discomfort after prolonged wear
Ensure laces are not tied too tightly. Check for any internal seams or objects causing pressure. Consider if the shoe is appropriate for the activity intensity.
Leather creasing
This is a natural characteristic of leather. To minimize excessive creasing, ensure proper fit and consider using shoe trees for storage.
