Troubleshooting
Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable
Ensure you have selected the correct size. Try wearing them with different types of socks. Break them in gradually with short periods of wear.
Suede material looks matted or dirty
Use a suede brush to gently restore the nap of the suede. For stubborn marks, use a specialized suede cleaner following product instructions.
Leather parts show scuffs
Light scuffs on leather can sometimes be buffed out with a soft cloth. For deeper scuffs, consider a leather conditioner or repair product specific to shoe leather.
Color transfer from accents
If the Cork Brown accents appear to be transferring color, ensure the shoes are completely dry before wearing. Avoid prolonged exposure to moisture.
