Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Leather shoes can stretch over time. Wear them for short periods initially, or use thick socks. Consider using a shoe stretcher if the tightness is significant.

Scuffs or marks on the leather

For minor scuffs, try buffing with a soft, dry cloth. For deeper marks, use a leather conditioner or cream matching the shoe's color.

Discoloration from water exposure

Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from heat. Once dry, apply a leather conditioner to restore moisture and color. Consider using a waterproofing spray for future protection.

Odor inside the shoe

Ensure the shoes are completely dry. Use a shoe deodorizer spray or insert, or place baking soda inside overnight to absorb odors.
