Troubleshooting

Creasing on patent leather

Minor creases are natural with wear. Avoid excessive bending and store with shoe trees to minimize creasing.

Yellowing of translucent outsole

Exposure to UV light can cause yellowing over time. Store away from sunlight and consider using specialized sole brighteners if significantly discolored.

Laces feel stiff

New laces can sometimes be stiff. Gentle stretching or wearing the shoes can help soften them over time. Replace if they become unserviceable.
