Troubleshooting

Stiff materials upon first wear

Leather and suede can take time to break in. Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow them to mold to your feet.

Red dye transfer on white socks

This can occur with new footwear, especially when wet. Ensure the shoes are completely dry before wearing. Washing new socks separately might also help.

Sole separation or minor damage

For minor issues like small sole lifts, a specialized shoe adhesive can be used. For significant damage, professional repair or replacement may be necessary.
