Troubleshooting
Lacquer finish on soleplate wearing off
This is a cosmetic effect of normal play and does not impact the performance or structural integrity of the boot. Continue using as normal.
Boots feel stiff initially
New boots often require a 'break-in' period. Wear them for shorter sessions initially and gradually increase usage time to allow them to mold to your feet.
Laces not staying tied
Ensure laces are tied securely with a double knot if necessary. Consider replacing laces with a different material if slipping persists.
Discomfort around the ankle
Adjust the lacing system, particularly around the ankle area. Ensure the Primeknit collar is sitting comfortably and not too tight. If discomfort persists, consult the fit guide or consider trying a different model.
