Troubleshooting
Sizing feels too tight or loose.
Ensure you have the correct UK size. If still uncomfortable, consider using aftermarket insoles for minor adjustments or consult a shoe fitting guide.
Scuffs on the white leather.
Gently clean with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild leather cleaner. For deeper scuffs, a white shoe cream or touch-up pen might be necessary.
Loss of shape.
Use shoe trees or stuff the shoes with paper when not in use to help maintain their original form.
Traction appears reduced.
Ensure the rubber outsole is clean. Dirt and debris can significantly impact grip. If the rubber is heavily worn, consider professional sole repair or replacement.
