Troubleshooting
Squeaking noise from shoes
This can sometimes occur due to friction between the tongue and inner lining. Try adjusting the lacing or applying a small amount of talcum powder under the tongue.
Leather creasing excessively
Creasing is natural with leather. To minimize it, avoid over-tightening laces and consider using shoe trees when not in use. Ensure proper fit to prevent excessive stress.
Color transfer from red accents
In rare cases, the red dye might transfer, especially when wet. Avoid prolonged exposure to moisture and direct contact with light-colored materials until the shoes are well broken in.
