Can I wear these shoes in formal settings?
These are best suited for casual and smart-casual occasions. They are not typically worn with formal business attire.

Troubleshooting
Shoes feel stiff or uncomfortable initially
This is common with new leather shoes. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase the duration to allow the leather to break in and conform to your foot.
Leather shows scuffs or marks
Minor scuffs can often be buffed out with a soft cloth. For more significant marks, use a leather cleaner specifically designed for the type of leather. Some users embrace these marks as part of the shoe's character.
Laces fraying or breaking
Replace rawhide laces with new ones of similar material and length. Ensure they are tied securely but not excessively tight to prevent unnecessary stress.
Reduced traction on wet surfaces
While Vibram® outsoles offer good grip, always exercise caution on very wet or slippery surfaces. Ensure the outsole is free from mud or debris that could affect traction.
