Troubleshooting

Leather creasing or scuffing

Minor creasing is natural with leather. For scuffs, try a leather conditioner or a specialized leather cleaner. Professional shoe care services can address deeper marks.

Reduced traction

Ensure the rubber outsole is clean. Debris or excessive wear can reduce grip. If the tread is significantly worn down, replacement may be necessary.

Discomfort after initial wear

Allow a break-in period of a few wears. If discomfort persists, check if the lacing or ankle strap needs adjustment for a better fit. Ensure you have the correct size.
