Troubleshooting
Slight stiffness upon first wear.
This is common with new leather shoes. Wear them for short periods initially to break them in, or use a leather conditioner to soften the material.
Scuff marks on the leather.
For minor scuffs, try using a clean eraser or a specialized leather recoloring balm. For deeper marks, consult a professional shoe repair service.
Loss of shape.
Ensure the shoes are stored properly when not in use. Stuffing them with shoe trees or paper can help maintain their original form.
