Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure the laces are loosened before putting on the shoes and then tightened to a comfortable fit. If the size is incorrect, consider exchanging for a different size.
Traction seems poor
Clean the rubber outsole with a damp cloth to remove any dirt or debris that may be reducing grip. Ensure the shoes are suitable for the surface being used on.
Discomfort during wear
Verify that the shoes are laced correctly and provide adequate support without being too tight. Allow a short break-in period for the materials to adapt to the foot.
