Troubleshooting

Leather creasing

Natural creasing is normal for leather. To minimize, ensure proper fit and consider using shoe trees when not in use.

Soles feel slippery on wet surfaces

The rubber outsole offers moderate grip. Exercise caution on very wet or smooth surfaces. Ensure the soles are clean and free of debris.

Discoloration of leather

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or harsh chemicals. Clean regularly with a damp cloth and consider a leather conditioner if appropriate for the finish.
