Troubleshooting
Stiff leather upon arrival
Wear the shoes for short periods to break them in. Gentle stretching exercises or a leather conditioner can also help.
Traction feels reduced on wet surfaces
The rubber outsole provides good traction, but caution is advised on very wet or slippery surfaces. Ensure the sole is clean from debris.
Discomfort around the ankle strap
Adjust the ankle strap for a less restrictive fit. Ensure the shoe is the correct size and allow for a break-in period.
Creasing on the leather
Creasing is natural with leather footwear and often indicates the shoes are being worn. To minimize excessive creasing, use shoe trees when not in use.
