Troubleshooting
Sizing seems off
Ensure you have correctly measured your foot according to standard UK sizing. Consult size charts and compare with other footwear if unsure. Note that sneaker fit can vary slightly between models.
Leather creasing
Creasing is a natural characteristic of leather footwear with wear. To minimize its appearance, use shoe trees for storage and avoid over-tightening laces.
Outsole yellowing
Semi-translucent outsoles can naturally yellow over time due to oxidation. To slow this process, store shoes away from light and extreme temperatures. Specialized de-yellowing products may be used cautiously for aesthetic improvement.
