Troubleshooting
Sizing feels incorrect
Verify your foot measurement against the UK 6.5 size guide. Consider that leather shoes may initially feel snug but will break in over time. If the fit remains uncomfortable, check for alternative sizes or models.
Leather scuff marks
Minor scuffs can often be buffed out with a soft cloth. For deeper marks, use a specialized leather cleaner or a leather conditioner cream.
Traction seems reduced
Ensure the rubber outsole is clean and free from debris. If the sole appears worn down, it may be time to consider replacement.
