Can these shoes be worn in wet conditions?

The leather and canvas materials are not inherently waterproof. It is best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to prevent damage.

Troubleshooting

Color transfer from orange outsole to lighter socks.

This can occur with new rubber soles. It's advisable to wear darker socks initially or to wipe down the outsole thoroughly before the first wear.

Leather creases or scuffs easily.

Creasing is natural with leather. Minor scuffs can be addressed with leather cleaner and conditioner. Be mindful of rough surfaces during wear.

Shoes feel slightly stiff initially.

Wear the shoes for short periods to break them in. The canvas and leather will mold to your foot shape over time.
