Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Wear with thin socks initially and gradually increase sock thickness. Allow for a break-in period as the materials will adapt to your foot.
Laces come undone easily
Ensure laces are tied securely using a double knot. Consider replacing laces with a more grippy material if slippage persists.
Reduced traction on dusty courts
Wipe the outsole with a damp cloth to remove dust build-up. Regular cleaning of the shoe's sole is recommended.
Ankle feels unsupported
Confirm the Huarache design is properly secured around the ankle. Ensure the laces are tied to provide adequate lockdown without restricting circulation.
