Troubleshooting

Creasing on leather

Minor creasing is natural with leather. To minimize, avoid over-tightening laces and consider using shoe trees when not in use. For significant creasing, professional restoration may be an option.

Discoloration of purple accents

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can fade colors. Clean with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary, and ensure thorough drying.

Elephant print fading or scuffing

Protect the elephant print areas from excessive abrasion. Clean gently with a soft brush or cloth. For minor scuffs, a leather conditioner may help restore the appearance.

Laces fraying

Replace frayed laces with new ones that match the original style and color. Ensure laces are not tied too tightly, which can cause unnecessary wear.
