Troubleshooting
Leather creasing
Creasing is natural with leather. To minimize, ensure proper fit and avoid over-tightening laces. Consider using shoe trees when not in use.
Gum sole discoloration
Scuffs on the gum sole can be cleaned with a magic eraser or rubbing alcohol applied to a cotton swab. Protect the sole from prolonged exposure to harsh chemicals.
Suede appears matted
Use a suede brush to gently lift the nap and restore the texture. Brush in one direction for best results.
Discomfort on first wear
Allow a break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time as the shoe conforms to your foot.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
These are ready-to-wear shoes. Ensure you select the correct size for optimal comfort.
Compatibility:

Care:
- Cleaning the Leather Upper: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and dust. For tougher stains, a mild leather cleaner can be used sparingly. Avoid excessive water.
- Suede Accents: For the night indigo suede heel tab, use a suede brush to gently remove dirt and restore the nap. Avoid saturating the suede.
- Gum Sole: Clean the gum sole with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Rubbing alcohol on a cotton swab can help remove scuff marks from the gum sole.
- Laces: Remove laces and hand wash them separately with mild soap and water, then air dry.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag or the original box to protect them from dust and direct sunlight.
