Troubleshooting
Sizing is incorrect.
Consult the Nike sizing chart for accurate measurements. If purchased online, check the return policy for exchanges.
Shoe feels uncomfortable after initial wear.
Allow for a break-in period of a few wears. Ensure socks are appropriate for athletic footwear to prevent friction.

While the gum outsole provides good traction, wet surfaces inherently reduce grip for all footwear. Exercise caution when walking on wet or slippery ground.

Regular cleaning as per the care instructions will help maintain the appearance. Consider using protective sprays designed for footwear if frequent exposure to dirt is expected.

- Cleaning the Midsole/Outsole: Wipe the foam midsole and rubber outsole with a damp cloth. For the gum outsole, a slightly stiffer brush might be needed for stubborn dirt, but avoid abrasive materials.
