Troubleshooting

Shoes feel stiff on first wear

Leather shoes often require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase the time to allow the leather to soften and conform to the foot.

Hook and loop fastener is not sticking securely

Ensure the hook and loop surfaces are clean and free from lint or debris. Gently brush the surfaces with a soft brush or cloth. If the fastener is worn, it may need replacement.

Leather appears dry or dull

Apply a small amount of appropriate leather conditioner or cream to the upper using a soft cloth. Buff gently to restore shine and suppleness.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning the Leather Upper: To clean the leather, use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and debris. For tougher marks, a specialized leather cleaner can be used sparingly, followed by wiping with a clean, dry cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the leather.
  • Maintaining the Sole: The synthetic sole can be wiped clean with a damp cloth. Ensure no mud or grit is left embedded, especially in any tread patterns, to maintain grip.
  • Storage: Store the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use to preserve the leather's condition and prevent discoloration.
