- Preparation: Ensure your socks are smooth and free of wrinkles.

Usage and Comfort
Your Mephisto Twain Moccasins are designed for everyday wear, offering a blend of style and comfort. The Soft-Air Technology in the midsole helps absorb shock, reducing strain on your feet, joints, and back. The breathable leather lining contributes to a healthy foot environment, even during extended periods of wear.
These shoes are suitable for various casual and semi-formal settings, providing consistent comfort throughout the day.
Care and Maintenance
Proper care will extend the life and maintain the appearance of your Mephisto Twain Moccasins:
- Cleaning Leather: For full-grain leather, gently wipe with a damp cloth to remove surface dirt. Use a high-quality leather cleaner and conditioner specifically designed for smooth leather. Apply sparingly and buff with a soft cloth.
- Drying: If shoes become wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can damage the leather. Stuff with newspaper to absorb moisture and help retain shape.
- Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Use shoe trees to help maintain their shape and absorb moisture.
- Sole Care: Inspect the rubber soles periodically for wear. Clean with a brush to remove dirt and debris.

Troubleshooting
| Issue | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Shoes feel too tight or loose. | Incorrect size or initial break-in period. | Refer to the size guide. Leather shoes may require a short break-in period to conform to your foot shape. If discomfort persists, ensure you have the correct size. |
| Squeaking sound when walking. | Moisture trapped between the insole and outsole, or new sole material. | Remove insoles and allow shoes to air dry completely. A small amount of talcum powder under the insole can also help. New rubber soles may squeak initially on certain surfaces; this usually diminishes with wear. |
| Leather appears dry or cracked. | Lack of conditioning or exposure to extreme conditions. | Apply a suitable leather conditioner regularly. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or extreme heat. |
