Troubleshooting
Laces come undone frequently
Ensure laces are tied securely with a double knot. Consider replacing laces if they are worn or slippery.
Discomfort after prolonged wear
Verify laces are not tied too tightly. Ensure the correct size is being worn. The EVA midsole may require a short break-in period.
Slight odor development
Remove insoles and air out shoes after each wear. Use a shoe deodorizer or baking soda to absorb odors. Ensure feet are clean and dry before wearing.
