Troubleshooting
Creasing on patent leather
Minor creasing is natural with wear. To minimize it, avoid over-tightening laces and ensure proper fit. Stuffing the shoes with paper or using shoe trees when not in use can help maintain their shape.
Squeaking sound
Squeaking can sometimes occur between the sole and the upper or due to moisture. Try cleaning the outsole and midsole thoroughly. If the squeak persists, a small amount of talcum powder applied under the insole might help.
Discoloration of translucent outsole
The translucent outsole can yellow over time, especially with UV exposure. Keep shoes stored away from direct sunlight. If discoloration occurs, a specialized shoe cleaner designed for soles or careful use of a diluted hydrogen peroxide solution may help, but test on an inconspicuous area first.
Tight fit
Ensure you have selected the correct size. If the shoes are initially snug, wearing them with medium-weight socks for short periods can help them stretch slightly to conform to your foot shape.
