Troubleshooting

Lacing system feels too tight or too loose

Adjust the lacing pattern to your preference. There are various lacing techniques that can alter the pressure points and overall snugness of the shoe.

Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces

Ensure the outsoles are clean and free from dust or debris. For initial wear, the grip may improve after a short break-in period. If the issue persists on specific indoor courts, consider a different shoe designed for that particular surface.
