Troubleshooting
Metallic finish appears dull or scratched
Gently clean with a soft, dry cloth. For persistent dullness, use a specialized metallic leather cleaner. Minor scratches may be buffed lightly with a soft cloth, but deep scratches may be permanent.
Leather feels stiff initially
Wear the shoes for short periods indoors to allow the natural lamb leather to soften and conform to your foot shape.
Laces become dirty
Carefully remove laces and hand wash with mild soap and water. Allow to air dry completely before re-lacing.
