Troubleshooting
Slight stiffness upon first wear
Leather shoes often require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially to allow them to mold to your foot.
Color transfer on socks
Some dark or vibrant dyes can transfer initially. This is common with new leather goods. Subsequent wears or a mild cleaning may reduce this effect.
Dirt or scuff marks
Use a dedicated leather cleaner or a slightly damp cloth to gently remove dirt. For scuff marks, a leather eraser or a specialized shoe cleaner might be effective.
