Troubleshooting

Laces fraying or breaking

Replace with new laces. Ensure you are not tying knots too tightly. Consider wax-coated laces for durability.

Discoloration of white leather

Clean immediately with a damp cloth. Use a specialized leather cleaner for stubborn marks. Protect with a water and stain repellent spray.

Squeaking noise from sole

This can sometimes occur due to moisture trapped between layers. Try wearing them in a dry environment or sprinkle a small amount of baby powder under the insole.

Uneven wear on sole

Ensure proper gait and avoid excessive dragging of feet. Rotate shoes with other pairs to distribute wear.
