Troubleshooting
Leather scuffs or scratches
For minor scuffs, try using a leather conditioner or a matching color leather balm. For deeper scratches, consult a professional cobbler.
Shoes feel tight
New leather shoes can take time to break in. Wear them for short periods initially. If they remain uncomfortably tight, consider using shoe stretchers or consulting a cobbler for professional stretching.
