Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable.

Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. If discomfort persists, consider trying on different sizes or models, as individual foot shapes vary. The materials may require a short break-in period.

Traction feels reduced on wet surfaces.

The rubber outsole provides durable traction, but grip can be reduced on very wet or slippery surfaces. Exercise caution in such conditions.

Mesh upper appears dirty.

Follow the care instructions for gentle cleaning. Use a mild detergent and a soft brush, then air dry. Avoid machine washing.
