Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Wear them with thin socks initially and allow a break-in period. You can also try using a shoe stretcher if the tightness persists.
Leather shows scuffs or marks
Use a specialized leather cleaner and conditioner to gently remove marks. For deeper scuffs, a leather repair kit or professional restoration may be needed.
Soles are dirty
Use a damp cloth or a soft brush with mild soap and water to clean the rubber outsole. Ensure the shoes are dry before storing.
Laces are worn out
Replace the laces with new ones of a similar length and material. Any standard shoe laces can be used.
