Troubleshooting

Trainers feel too tight

Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring even pressure distribution. If still uncomfortable, consider if the size is appropriate or if the break-in period is needed.

Scuff marks on the leather upper

Gently wipe the scuff mark with a damp cloth. For persistent marks, a specialized leather cleaner can be used with caution, following product instructions.

Mesh panels look dirty

Use a soft brush or a damp cloth with mild soap to gently clean the mesh. Rinse with a clean damp cloth and allow to air dry.

Squeaking sound from the sole

This can sometimes occur due to moisture trapped between sole layers. Try drying the shoes thoroughly. A small amount of talcum powder sprinkled inside might also help.
