wondering if anyone can help me or has an opinion on a pair of shoes that I have just bought from a different country. The leather is Hatch Grain that I do believe is stated as horween on their website and are known for being a great tannery. The shoes arrived with some areas that have what I believe multiple insect bites and am wondering if this is a sign of Good or Bad quality leather as I thought corrected grain takes out blemishes and visual imperfections?.

(The areas of the shoes are more noticeable in person and pictures don't really do enough justice)
