Troubleshooting
Uneven fit or rubbing
Ensure laces are tied correctly and evenly. Try wearing thicker socks or use insoles for a more customized fit. Break-in period may be required for new shoes.
Reduced cushioning after initial wear
The midsole materials may require a short break-in period to reach optimal cushioning. Ensure the shoes are being used for intended purposes and not subjected to excessive force.
Difficulty cleaning specific stains
For stubborn stains, consider using a specialized shoe cleaner designed for trainers. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.
