Troubleshooting

Shoes feel stiff initially

Wear the shoes for short periods to gradually break them in. Walking around the house can help mold them to your feet.

Scuffs or marks on the leather

Use a dedicated leather cleaner and a soft cloth to gently remove marks. For deeper scuffs, a leather repair kit or professional cleaning might be necessary.

Laces come undone frequently

Ensure laces are tied securely using a double knot. Consider replacing the laces with ones that offer better grip.

Discoloration of the grey material

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can fade colors. Clean regularly to prevent dirt from setting in.
