Troubleshooting
Uneven color tone
This can be a characteristic of natural materials or dyeing processes. If it's significant, contact customer support.
Slight stiffness on first wear
This is normal for new shoes. Wear them for short periods initially to break them in. They will become more comfortable over time.
Water spotting on suede/nubuck
Use a suede brush to restore the texture once dry. For persistent marks, consider a specialized suede cleaner.
