Troubleshooting
Shoes feel stiff or uncomfortable initially
This is common with new leather shoes. Wear them for short periods indoors to allow them to break in and conform to your feet. Wearing them with appropriate socks can also help.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces
While the siped outsole offers enhanced traction, very smooth or wet surfaces can still be challenging. Ensure the soles are clean and free from debris. Avoid wearing in extremely slippery conditions.
Leather shows water stains
Wipe gently with a damp cloth and allow to air dry. Follow up with a leather conditioner once dry. Avoid soaking the shoes.
