Troubleshooting
Squeaking noise during wear
This can sometimes occur due to friction between components. Try loosening and re-tying the laces, or apply a small amount of talcum powder under the insole.
Color transfer from suede
In dry conditions, light color transfer can happen. Ensure socks are adequately colored. For significant transfer, use a suede protector spray.
Uneven fit or feel
Ensure laces are tied evenly. If the issue persists, the shoes may need a break-in period, or you might consider trying a different size if a significant difference is noted.
