Troubleshooting
Slight stiffness upon first wear
This is common with premium suede and durable materials. Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow them to break in and mold to your feet.

Use a dedicated suede eraser or brush for minor marks. For more significant discoloration, consult a professional shoe cleaning service.

Replace laces with a similar style and material. Keep laces tied loosely when not in use to reduce stress.
