Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Wear with thin socks initially. Try using a shoe stretcher for a few days, or loosen the laces significantly and wear them for short periods to allow the canvas to adapt to your foot shape.
Canvas shows scuff marks
Use a magic eraser or a slightly damp cloth with a drop of mild dish soap to gently rub out scuff marks. Test on an inconspicuous area first.
Laces fraying
Replace laces with a similar thickness and length. Consider waxed laces for increased durability.
Squeaking sound from sole
Ensure the insole is properly seated. Sometimes moisture trapped between layers can cause squeaking; try airing the shoes out completely.
