Troubleshooting
Slingback strap feels too loose or tight
Adjust the buckle on the slingback strap to find your ideal fit. If the strap is consistently too loose or tight despite adjustment, consult a professional cobbler for potential modifications or consider if a different width is more suitable.
Discomfort from the pointed toe
Leather shoes, especially those with pointed toes, often require a break-in period. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase the duration. If discomfort persists, consider a professional cobbler for stretching services or explore wide-fit options if available.
Slippery sole on certain surfaces
New leather soles can be slippery. You can gently scuff the sole with fine-grit sandpaper or have a cobbler apply a protective sole layer or rubber taps for improved traction.
Leather shows scuffs or marks
For minor scuffs, try a leather conditioner or cream designed for calf leather. For more significant marks, consult a professional leather care specialist.
