Troubleshooting
Discomfort or rubbing
Ensure you have the correct size. Wear with appropriate socks. If the issue persists, the padded collar may need a short break-in period.
Foot feels warm or sweaty
The breathable mesh upper helps, but for intense activity, consider moisture-wicking socks. Allow shoes to air out between wears.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces
The rubber pods offer grip, but performance may vary on extremely wet or smooth surfaces. Clean the soles of any debris that might affect traction.
