Troubleshooting

Laces becoming dirty

Remove laces and hand wash with mild detergent and water. Allow to air dry completely before re-lacing.

Leather creasing over time

Minor creasing is natural with leather. Use shoe trees when not in use to help maintain shape. Avoid over-tightening laces.

Discoloration from wear

Regular cleaning with appropriate products can help maintain color. Protect from excessive UV exposure which can cause fading.
