Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Wear them with medium-thick socks for a few hours each day to allow the leather to stretch and mold to your foot shape. Avoid excessive heat to speed up stretching, as this can damage the material.
Scuffs or marks on the leather
For light scuffs, try buffing with a soft, dry cloth. For deeper marks, use a dedicated leather cleaner or a matching color polish if available. Test any cleaning product on an inconspicuous area first.
Soles feel stiff
The vulcanized rubber sole is designed for durability and board feel. It will become more flexible with regular wear and use. Gentle flexing of the shoes can help accelerate this process.
