Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or too loose.
Adjust the laces for a more secure or comfortable fit. Utilize the size-checking sockliner to confirm if the current size is appropriate for your child's growing feet.
Dirt or stains on the shoe.
Wipe with a damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a mild soap and water mixture, then rinse with a clean damp cloth. Ensure to air dry.
Reduced cushioning or support.
The EVA midsole and GEL technology provide long-term cushioning. If performance significantly degrades, it may be time to consider a new pair, especially if the child has outgrown the current size.
