Troubleshooting

Squeaking sound from the sole

This can sometimes occur due to moisture trapped between layers. Ensure the shoes are completely dry, especially the sole unit. If the issue persists, try applying a small amount of talcum powder under the insole.

Laces becoming worn or frayed

Replace the laces with a new pair of suitable length and material. Many athletic footwear stores offer a variety of replacement laces.

Discoloration of the translucent sole

The translucent sole can be susceptible to yellowing over time, especially with prolonged sun exposure. Store shoes away from direct sunlight. Use specialized sole cleaners if discoloration is significant, but test on an inconspicuous area first.
