Troubleshooting
Sole separation or visible damage
Minor separation can sometimes be addressed with specialized shoe adhesive. For significant damage, it may indicate excessive wear and the shoes may need replacement.
Reduced grip on the outsole
Ensure the outsole is clean and free from dirt, wax, or debris. If the tread is significantly worn down, the grip will naturally be reduced, and replacement may be necessary.
Discomfort or pressure points
Break in the shoes gradually by wearing them for shorter periods. Ensure the correct size is being worn. Additional insoles can be added for customized comfort if needed.
