Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure you have selected the correct size. Try wearing thinner socks or loosening the laces to find a more comfortable fit. If the issue persists, consider if the shoe's structure is not compatible with your foot shape.
Discoloration on leather or mesh
For minor scuffs, try a leather cleaner suitable for white leather. For mesh areas, use a damp cloth and mild soap. Always test cleaning solutions on an inconspicuous area first.
Soles feel stiff
New shoes can sometimes feel stiff. Wear them for short periods initially to break them in. Gentle flexing of the sole by hand can also help.
