Troubleshooting
Squeaking noise
This can sometimes occur with new shoes. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder or cornstarch under the insole, or lightly condition the inside of the shoe where rubbing might be occurring.
Ankle strap not secure
Ensure the buckle is fastened correctly. If the strap is too long, consider adding a small hole or consulting a cobbler for adjustments.
