Troubleshooting
Traction feels reduced on certain surfaces.
Ensure the rubber outsole is clean and free from debris. Minor wear is normal; for significant loss of grip, consider replacement.
Feet feel warm or sweaty during use.
The engineered mesh provides breathability, but for very high-intensity or long-duration activities in warm conditions, consider moisture-wicking socks.
Laces come undone frequently.
Ensure laces are tied securely. If they continue to loosen, consider double-knotting them or replacing them with a different type of lace.
Midsole feels less cushioned over time.
Midsole cushioning naturally compresses with use. Regular cleaning and avoiding extreme conditions can help prolong its effectiveness. For significant loss of cushioning, replacement may be necessary.
