Troubleshooting

Discomfort during initial wear

This is common with new footwear. Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow them to break in. Ensure you have the correct size and fit.

Color transfer from trainers

While unlikely, vibrant dyes can sometimes transfer. Avoid prolonged contact with light-colored materials, especially when wet. Clean gently if transfer occurs.

Reduced cushioning over time

Cushioning naturally degrades with use. For light activities, this may take a long time. If significant degradation occurs sooner than expected, consider cleaning the shoes and ensuring no debris is impacting the sole.
