Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Loosen the laces and ensure your feet are properly positioned. If still uncomfortable, consider if the size is correct for your foot. Trying them on with the type of socks you typically wear can help assess fit.

Leather creases easily

Creasing is natural with leather footwear. To minimize deep creases, use shoe trees when not in use and avoid bending the toe box excessively during wear.

Discoloration on colored accents

Clean colored accents gently with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid excessive rubbing or harsh cleaning agents that could lift the color.
