Troubleshooting
Trainers feel too tight or loose.
Adjust the lacing to achieve a comfortable fit. If the issue persists, consider if the size is correct for your foot, as trainers are designed for a regular width.
Difficulty cleaning the molded details.
Use a soft brush (like an old toothbrush) with mild soap and water to gently clean intricate areas. Wipe away residue with a damp cloth.
Lace cover feels stiff or difficult to manage.
The lace cover may require a short breaking-in period. Gently manipulate it during the initial wears. Ensure laces are not overly bulky underneath.
