Troubleshooting
Stiff leather or straps initially.
Wear the shoes for short periods indoors to gently break them in. The soft nappa leather should become more flexible with use.
Mesh panel discoloration.
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or harsh chemicals. Clean gently with a damp cloth as per care instructions.
Ankle strap becoming untied.
Ensure the bow is tied securely. If the mesh straps feel slippery, a very small, discreet knot can be added after the bow.
