Troubleshooting

Creasing on leather upper

Some creasing is natural with leather. To minimize, avoid over-tightening laces and use shoe trees for storage. Specialized crease protectors can also be used.

Traction feels reduced on certain surfaces

Ensure the rubber outsole is clean from debris. If wear is significant, the traction may be diminished.

Discoloration of white leather

Clean immediately with a damp cloth. For persistent marks, use a mild leather cleaner designed for white footwear. Avoid exposure to harsh chemicals or dyes.
