Troubleshooting
Shoe feels too tight or uncomfortable
Ensure you have selected the correct size. Wear the shoes around the house for a short period to allow the leather to mold to your foot. If still uncomfortable, consider alternative lacing techniques or consult with a footwear specialist.
Leather shows scuffs or minor damage
For light scuffs, try using a leather conditioner or a specialized leather cleaner. For deeper marks, consult a professional shoe repair service.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces
The rubber outsole provides grip, but performance can vary on wet or highly polished surfaces. Ensure the soles are clean. For persistent issues, consider a rubber sole repair or add non-slip pads.
