Troubleshooting

Laces coming undone frequently

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

Discomfort after prolonged wear

Verify you have the correct size and width. Ensure laces are adjusted for optimal support without being too tight. Consider using insoles for added cushioning if needed.

Slight squeaking noise

This can sometimes occur with new shoes. Try walking on different surfaces or gently flexing the sole. If persistent, a small amount of talcum powder under the insole might help.
