The upper is made of premium leather.

How do I clean the leather upper?

Use a damp cloth to wipe away dirt. For tougher stains, a specialized leather cleaner and conditioner are recommended.

Is the bold outsole good for all types of weather?

The ribbed outsole provides good traction on most urban surfaces. However, caution is advised on extremely wet or slippery conditions.

Are there other color or material options available?

Yes, the Torhill Lo series is available in various colors and materials, including suede, depending on the specific model.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel stiff initially

This is normal for new leather shoes with a robust outsole. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time to allow them to break in. Wearing thicker socks can also help stretch the leather slightly.

Leather scuffs or marks easily

Clean the affected area with a damp cloth. For more persistent marks, use a dedicated leather cleaner and follow up with a leather conditioner. Consider applying a protective spray for future use.

Outsole grip feels slippery on wet surfaces

While the ribbed outsole offers good grip, extreme wet conditions can still pose a risk. Exercise caution on very wet or polished surfaces. Ensure the outsole is clean, as dirt can impede traction.

Laces wear out or break

Replace the laces with a similar length and type. Ensure the new laces are threaded correctly through the eyelets.

Care:
