Troubleshooting

Leather creasing excessively

This is natural with leather. To minimize deep creases, ensure proper fit and avoid over-tightening laces. Using shoe trees when not in use can help maintain shape.

Stains on the white leather

Address stains immediately with a damp cloth and mild soap or a dedicated leather cleaner. For tougher stains, consult a professional shoe cleaner.

Ankle strap feels too tight or too loose

Adjust the hook-and-loop strap to your preferred level of snugness. Ensure it's firm enough to provide support but not so tight as to cause discomfort.

Care Instructions:
