Troubleshooting

Creasing on the leather

Minor creasing is normal with leather footwear. To minimize, ensure proper fit and consider using shoe trees when not in use. Avoid over-tightening laces.

Squeaking sound

This can sometimes occur with new shoes. Try loosening the laces slightly or ensure the insole is properly seated. If the squeak persists, a small amount of talcum powder under the insole might help.

Discoloration of the 'Year of the Tiger' details

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and harsh cleaning agents. Clean gently with a damp cloth as per care instructions.
