Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. If the shoes are new, they may require a short break-in period. Wearing them with thinner socks can also help initially.
Uneven wear on soles
Check your walking gait. For persistent issues, consult a footwear specialist. Ensure the shoes are not being used for activities exceeding their intended purpose (e.g., intense sports).
Discoloration on leather or mesh
Clean gently with a damp cloth and mild soap. For stubborn stains, use a specialized cleaner suitable for the material. Avoid exposing the shoes to prolonged direct sunlight or harsh chemicals.
