Shoe feels too tight or too loose
Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. If the fit is still not ideal, consider using thicker or thinner socks, or trying an insole for minor adjustments.
Squeaking noise when walking
This can sometimes occur due to friction between different parts of the shoe. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder or cornstarch under the insole or where the squeak originates. Ensure laces are tied properly.
