Troubleshooting
Squeaking sound from shoes
This can sometimes occur with new shoes. Try powdering the insole or checking for any loose parts. It often resolves with continued wear.
Reduced grip on the sole
Clean the rubber outsole thoroughly with water and a brush to remove dirt and debris that may be affecting traction.
Discomfort during extended wear
