Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring they are not pulled too tight across the top of the foot. If the shoe is genuinely too small, consider a larger size.
Laces are difficult to tie
Ensure laces are not frayed or worn. Consider replacing them with new laces if they are slippery or difficult to knot.
Mud or dirt on the shoes
Wipe down the leather and textile with a damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, use a soft brush and a mild soap solution, then wipe clean with a damp cloth.
