Troubleshooting

Shoes feel stiff initially.

The Swirlfoam cushioning and rocker sole may require a brief break-in period. Wear them for short periods initially to allow them to mold to your foot.

Laces come undone easily.

Ensure laces are tied securely with a double knot if necessary. Consider replacing laces if they are worn or slippery.

Slight discomfort during heel strike.

Adjust the tightness of the laces, focusing on the midfoot area. Ensure the shoe is the correct size and width.
