Troubleshooting
Slight discomfort or break-in period
New shoes often require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time. Ensure the lacing is adjusted for optimal fit.
Mesh appearing dirty
Follow the care instructions for cleaning the mesh upper using a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Allow to air dry completely.
Reduced cushioning effect over time
While the gel inserts are durable, their effectiveness can diminish with extensive use. For prolonged comfort, consider rotating shoes or using insoles if additional support is needed.
