Troubleshooting

Laces fraying or breaking

Replace with standard shoelaces of a similar length and color. Consider using wax-coated laces for added durability.

Detachable overlays not securing properly

Ensure all connection points are clean and free of debris. Realign the overlays carefully before securing them.

Leather creasing or scuffing

Minor creases are natural with leather. For scuffs, use a leather cleaner appropriate for white leather. Use shoe trees to help maintain shape and prevent excessive creasing.

Drawstring on slip-on becoming loose

Tighten the drawstring to secure the fit. If the drawstring mechanism is damaged, consult a cobbler for repair or replacement.
