Is this shoe available in other colors or sizes?

Can these shoes be worn in wet weather?
The leather material can offer some protection, but these are not waterproof. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to preserve the material and prevent discomfort.
Troubleshooting
Uneven wear on the sole
Ensure the shoes are used for their intended purpose (lifestyle/light activity). Avoid excessive wear on hard, abrasive surfaces. Rotate with other footwear if worn daily.
Discomfort after extended wear
Ensure the correct size is being worn. Consider using insoles for additional cushioning or arch support if needed. Break-in period may be required for optimal comfort.
Leather material showing scuffs
Use a leather cleaner and conditioner specifically designed for footwear. For minor scuffs, a matching color shoe polish can help restore appearance.
