Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Loosen the laces, especially around the midfoot and forefoot, and re-tie them more loosely. Consider wearing thinner socks. If still tight, and this is a new pair, they may require break-in time.

Creasing on leather

Creasing is natural with leather shoes, especially in high-flex areas like the toebox. To minimize visible creasing, ensure proper fit and consider using shoe trees when not in use.

Squeaking sound

Squeaking can sometimes occur from friction within the shoe. Try adding a bit of talcum powder or cornstarch under the insole. If the squeak is from the sole, ensure it is clean and dry.

Red dye transfer

While unlikely with proper finishing, if significant color transfer is observed onto socks or light-colored surfaces, it's recommended to allow the shoes to air out and consider using a protective spray designed for leather.

Care:
