Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Leather can stretch slightly with wear. Try wearing them with thin socks for a few hours. If still uncomfortable, consider professional stretching or exploring different sizes.
Leather creasing excessively
Natural creasing is normal for leather. To minimize, use shoe trees when not in use and avoid bending the shoes excessively when walking.
Discoloration on suede areas
Suede is sensitive to moisture and certain chemicals. If discolored, try a specialized suede eraser or brush. Protect with a suede protector spray.
Traction feels reduced
Ensure the rubber outsole is clean and free from debris. If the sole appears worn down, it may be time to consider a replacement from a cobbler.
