Troubleshooting
Creasing on leather
Minor creasing is natural with wear. To minimize, avoid over-tightening laces and consider using shoe trees when not in use.
Yellowing of the translucent outsole
This can occur over time due to oxidation. While difficult to reverse completely, cleaning with specialized solutions might help slow the process or improve clarity.
Discomfort or poor fit
Ensure you have selected the correct size. Break-in period may be required for leather shoes. Adjust lacing for a more personalized fit.
