Are these shoes suitable for running?

Troubleshooting

Leather scuff marks

Gently buff out minor scuffs with a soft cloth. For deeper marks, use a leather repair cream specifically designed for the color.

Soles feel slippery

Ensure the soles are clean and dry. If the issue persists on certain surfaces, consider a light sanding of the sole with fine-grit sandpaper to restore grip, or consult a shoe professional.

Discoloration of accents

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or harsh chemicals. Clean accent areas gently with a damp cloth, avoiding excessive rubbing.

Laces becoming worn

Replace worn laces with new ones of a similar length and color to maintain the shoe's aesthetic.
