Troubleshooting
Leather scuffing or scratching
Gently buff out minor scuffs with a soft cloth. For deeper scratches, use a matching color shoe polish or leather repair kit following product instructions.
Shoes feel stiff or uncomfortable
Wear the shoes for short periods initially to break them in. Use a leather conditioner to soften the material and consider using shoe stretchers if needed.
Monk strap closure feels too tight or loose
Adjust the buckle position on the strap to find the most comfortable and secure fit. Ensure the strap is fastened correctly through the buckle.
Leather appears dry or dull
Apply a leather conditioner to restore moisture and suppleness. Follow up with a light polish to bring back the shine.
