Troubleshooting
Uneven fit or discomfort
Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. Leather may require a short break-in period to mold to your foot shape. Wear them for short periods initially.
Scuff marks on leather
Use a damp cloth to gently wipe away minor scuffs. For deeper marks, a specialized leather cleaner or conditioner may be required, followed by a touch-up with a matching color polish if necessary.
Discoloration of the yellow midsole
Clean the midsole with a damp cloth. Avoid exposure to harsh chemicals or prolonged direct sunlight, which can cause yellowing or fading over time.
