Troubleshooting

Creasing on leather upper

While some creasing is natural with leather, minimize pressure when storing and consider using shoe trees to help maintain shape. Avoid bending the shoe excessively during wear.

Slight color transfer from blue to white

This can occasionally happen with dyed leather. Ensure shoes are completely dry before wear. If minor transfer occurs, try cleaning the white areas gently with a specialized leather cleaner or a magic eraser. Avoid wearing in heavy rain.

Discomfort or rubbing

Ensure the correct size is being worn. Break in the shoes gradually by wearing them for short periods. Thicker socks can also help cushion and prevent rubbing during the break-in phase.
