Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight upon first wear.
Allow for a break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially, gradually increasing wear time. Consider using thicker socks during the break-in phase if the fit is snug.
Leather scuff marks appear.
For minor scuffs, try gently buffing the area with a soft, dry cloth. For more noticeable marks, specialized leather cleaners or balms can be used, following product instructions.
Sole feels slippery on certain surfaces.
Ensure the sole is clean and free of debris. If slipperiness persists on very smooth surfaces, consider a protective spray designed for shoe soles, though this may slightly alter traction.
