Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Loosen the laces and try lacing them differently. Wear them with thicker socks for a short period to help stretch them slightly. If they remain uncomfortable, consider if this is the correct size for your foot.
Laces fraying or breaking
Replace the laces with a new pair. Ensure laces are not excessively tight, which can cause premature wear.
Soles losing grip
Clean the sole thoroughly with a brush and water to remove any dirt or debris that may be hindering traction. Ensure the waffle pattern is clear.
Discoloration on leather or canvas
Use appropriate cleaning products for leather and canvas respectively. Test any cleaning solution on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight.
