Troubleshooting
Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable
Allow for a break-in period of a few wears. You can also try wearing them with thicker socks around the house for a short time to help them stretch slightly.
Discoloration on the shoe surface
This can sometimes occur with natural materials. Try cleaning with a slightly damp cloth. For persistent marks, consult specific shoe cleaning guides for the materials used (e.g., suede cleaner if applicable).
Slight odor after prolonged wear
Ensure feet are clean and dry before wearing. Remove insoles if possible and air them out separately. Use a shoe deodorizer spray if necessary. Allow shoes to air out between wears.
