Troubleshooting

Leather creasing excessively

Ensure proper fit. If creasing is a concern, consider using shoe trees to help maintain shape when not in use. Avoid over-tightening laces.

Gold accents losing shine

Gently buff the gold accents with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid direct contact with cleaning solutions.

Embossed pattern showing wear

Regularly apply a leather conditioner and protector suitable for embossed leathers. Avoid scuffing the shoes against rough surfaces.

Slight discoloration on leather

Attempt a gentle clean with a slightly damp cloth. For stubborn marks, consult a professional leather cleaner.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning: Gently wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  • Protection: Consider using a leather protector spray suitable for exotic or embossed leathers to guard against moisture and stains. Test on an inconspicuous area first.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, preferably in a shoe bag to prevent dust accumulation and preserve the material's condition.
  • Drying: If the shoes get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the leather.
