It indicates that the product was manufactured in the USA, ensuring high production standards and careful quality control.
Are these suitable for sports?

Troubleshooting
Visible dirt on beige fabric sections
Use a specialized foam cleaner for sneakers and a soft brush, working in small circular motions to lift the dirt without saturating the material.
Creasing in the leather toe box
This is a natural occurrence with real leather. Use shoe trees after every wear to help minimize deep creases and maintain the silhouette.
