Troubleshooting

Shoes feel stiff or uncomfortable initially

The Shox cushioning system and layered construction may require a short break-in period. Wear the shoes for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time as they conform to your feet.

Laces are difficult to keep tied

Ensure laces are tied securely using a double knot. Consider replacing the laces with a pair that has a textured finish for better grip.

Slight squeaking sound during walking

This can sometimes occur with new cushioning systems. Try wearing them for a longer period to allow components to settle. If the sound persists, a very small amount of talcum powder inside the shoe may help.
