Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable.
Adjust the lacing to distribute pressure more evenly. Consider wearing them for short periods initially to break them in.
Traction is reduced on wet surfaces.
While designed for good grip, performance on very wet or muddy surfaces may be less optimal. Clean the outsole regularly to ensure tread is free from debris.
Leather appears dry or stiff.
Apply a suitable leather conditioner to rehydrate the material. Ensure the shoes are clean and dry before conditioning.
