Troubleshooting
Shoes feel stiff or uncomfortable initially
The leather components may require a break-in period. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase the duration. Consider using a shoe stretcher or wearing thicker socks during the break-in phase.
Color transfer from shoes to socks
This can sometimes occur with new, brightly colored footwear. It's recommended to wear dark-colored socks until any excess dye has washed out. Avoid prolonged exposure to moisture.
Minor scuffs or marks on leather overlays
Use a specialized leather cleaner or a mild, damp cloth to gently wipe away the mark. For persistent scuffs, consider a leather repair balm or color-matched polish, testing first on a hidden area.
Squeaking noise when walking
This can sometimes happen due to friction between components. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder or cornstarch under the insole or in the tongue area. Ensure laces are not tied too tightly.
