Troubleshooting

Tight fit upon initial wear

Wear the shoes with medium-thickness socks for a few hours each day. Consider using a shoe stretcher if the tightness persists.

Scuff marks on leather overlays

Gently clean with a soft cloth and a mild cleaner. For deeper scuffs, a leather repair kit or colored shoe polish matching the Wheat Gold shade may be used.

Squeaking sound when walking

This can sometimes occur due to friction between components. Try to identify the source (e.g., tongue rubbing against the upper) and apply a small amount of talcum powder or a leather conditioner to the friction point.

Dirt accumulation on outsole

Clean the Safety Orange outsole with a damp cloth and a non-abrasive cleaner. A toothbrush can be used for crevices.
