Troubleshooting
Leather appears dry or creased
Apply a quality leather conditioner to restore moisture and suppleness. Use a shoe tree to help minimize creasing when not in use.
Slight discomfort during initial wear
This is common with new leather shoes. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time. Ensure the correct size has been selected.
Scuffs or scratches on the leather
For minor scuffs, try buffing with a soft cloth. For deeper marks, use a leather cream or polish that matches the shoe color to conceal the damage.
