Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Ensure you have purchased the correct size. Leather can stretch slightly over time, but significant discomfort may indicate an incorrect fit. Wear with appropriate socks to gauge comfort.

Leather shows water marks

Allow shoes to dry naturally away from heat. Once dry, use a leather conditioner to restore suppleness and potentially blend the marks. Waterproofing sprays can help prevent future marks.

Soles have poor grip

Clean the textured tread thoroughly with a brush to remove trapped debris. Ensure the soles are dry, as moisture can reduce grip on some surfaces.
