Troubleshooting
Shoe feels too tight or uncomfortable
Ensure you have selected the correct size. Try wearing them with different types of socks. If discomfort persists after a break-in period, they may not be the right fit for your foot shape.
Squeaking noise during walking
This can sometimes occur due to friction between shoe components. Try ensuring the insoles are properly seated. A small amount of talcum powder under the insole might help, but use sparingly.
Dirt or scuff marks on synthetic upper
Gently clean the affected area with a damp cloth and mild soap. For tougher marks, a magic eraser can be used cautiously on synthetic surfaces.
Laces wear out or break
Replace laces with standard athletic shoelaces of a similar length and thickness. You can find replacements at most shoe or sporting goods stores.
