Troubleshooting

Uneven wear on outsole

Ensure proper walking gait. Rotate footwear to allow soles to recover. Clean outsoles regularly to prevent debris from causing uneven pressure.

Discomfort after initial wear

Allow a break-in period of a few wears. Ensure correct sizing and consider using aftermarket insoles if specific arch support is needed.

Laces fraying or breaking

Replace laces with new ones of similar length and material. Avoid overly aggressive tightening of laces.

Color transfer from shoe to socks

This can sometimes occur with new dyed materials. Wash socks separately for the first few wears or try wiping the inside of the shoe with a dry cloth before wearing.
