Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight.
Ensure you have selected the correct size. Try wearing thinner socks. Some materials may stretch slightly with wear, but significant tightness may indicate an incorrect size.
Soles appear worn quickly.
This may indicate heavy usage or use on abrasive surfaces not intended for this shoe type. Consider rotating with another pair of shoes for daily use.
Discoloration on synthetic upper.
Clean gently with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid exposure to harsh sunlight for prolonged periods, which can cause fading.
