Troubleshooting
Uneven color on denim
Denim has a natural variance. Minor inconsistencies are normal. For significant issues, contact customer support.
Stiffness in new shoes
Wear the shoes for short periods initially to break them in. Consider using thicker socks during the break-in phase.
Squeaking noise
This can sometimes occur with new soles. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder under the insole or between the tongue and laces.
Denim creasing excessively
Creasing is natural with denim and wear. Proper fit and allowing the shoes to rest can help manage this.
