Troubleshooting

Initial discomfort or tightness

Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow them to break in. Ensure you have the correct size by checking foot measurements.

Squeaking noise during wear

This can sometimes occur with new shoes. Try walking on different surfaces or ensure all parts of the shoe are dry. If it persists, check for any loose components.

Color transfer onto socks or clothing
