Troubleshooting

Shoe feels too tight

Ensure the correct size was purchased. Loosen laces and try different lacing techniques. For initial wear, breaking them in gradually can help.

Leather creasing excessively

This is a natural characteristic of leather. To minimize visible creasing, consider using shoe trees when not in use and avoid bending the shoe excessively during wear.

Soles feel slippery

Ensure the rubber outsole is clean. If the issue persists on specific surfaces, consider the shoe's intended use on courts or common urban environments.

Color transfer from red accents

This is rare but can occur in wet conditions. Allow the shoes to dry completely before wearing them, and avoid prolonged contact with light-colored socks or materials if damp.
