Troubleshooting
Slight color transfer on socks
This can occasionally happen with new dyed materials. It is recommended to wear darker socks initially until any excess dye is washed out.
Creasing on leather sections
Creasing is natural with leather wear. To minimize, ensure proper fit and avoid over-tightening laces. Store them with shoe trees if possible.
Reduced grip on smooth surfaces
Ensure the rubber outsole is clean and free from debris. For excessively smooth or wet surfaces, additional caution may be needed.
