Troubleshooting
Leather creasing excessively
This is natural for leather. Ensure the fit is correct and use shoe trees when not in use to help maintain shape. Avoid overtightening laces.
Slight stiffness on first wear
Leather trainers often require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially to allow them to mold to your feet.
Sole feels slippery on wet surfaces
While the sole provides good grip, natural rubber can be less effective on extremely wet or polished surfaces. Exercise caution in such conditions.
Discoloration after cleaning
Ensure you are using a cleaner specifically designed for the type of leather. Test any cleaner on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid harsh chemicals.
