Troubleshooting

Uneven Creasing on Leather

Natural leather will crease with wear. Minor creasing is normal. To minimize significant creasing, avoid overtightening laces and use shoe trees when not in use.

Difficulty lacing up due to collar height

Loosen the laces considerably before putting the shoes on. Adjust the lacing to your comfort level once the shoe is on your foot. The elongated collar is part of the design.

Scuffs or scratches on the leather

For minor scuffs, try using a leather conditioner or a matching black shoe polish. For deeper scratches, consult a professional shoe repair service.
