Troubleshooting
Creasing on leather
Minor creasing is natural with leather. To minimize, use shoe trees when not in use and avoid over-tightening laces. For significant creases, professional restoration may be required.
Discoloration of gold accents
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and harsh chemicals. Clean gently with a dry or slightly damp soft cloth.
Laces wear out
Replace laces with similar material and length. Ensure they are not overly tightened to prevent premature wear.
Smell inside the shoe
Ensure feet are clean and dry before wearing. Use deodorizing shoe inserts or baking soda overnight to absorb odors. Air out shoes regularly.
