Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight initially.
Leather can stretch over time with wear. Try wearing them around the house for short periods to break them in. Ensure you have the correct size; refer to sizing charts if unsure.
Suede appears matted or dirty.
Use a suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For stubborn marks, consult a suede cleaner and follow product instructions carefully.
Leather shows scuffs or marks.
Small scuffs can often be buffed out with a soft cloth. For deeper marks, use a leather conditioner or a color-matched shoe cream if available.
Laces are dirty.
Remove laces and hand wash them with mild soap and water, or place them in a mesh laundry bag and wash with your regular laundry. Allow to air dry completely before re-lacing.
