Troubleshooting
Leather creasing excessively
This is a natural characteristic of leather. Ensure proper fit; if too large, creasing can be more pronounced. Using shoe trees when not in use can help mitigate this.
Icy outsole becoming cloudy or yellowing
This can occur over time due to oxidation and exposure to light. Cleaning with a specialized sole cleaner may help. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when not wearing the shoes.
Laces become dirty
Remove laces and hand wash them with mild soap and water. Allow them to air dry completely before re-lacing.
Discomfort or pinching
Ensure you have the correct size. Break in the shoes gradually by wearing them for short periods. If the issue persists, consider if the shoe's shape is incompatible with your foot.
