Troubleshooting
Difficulty lacing the shoes tightly
Ensure the laces are threaded through all eyelets evenly. If the laces are too short or worn, consider replacing them with a fresh pair of appropriate length.
Shoes feel too loose or too tight
Adjust the lacing pattern. For a tighter fit, ensure the laces are pulled snug from the bottom eyelets upwards. For a looser fit, slacken the laces throughout. Always check the heel for slippage and the toe for adequate room.
Synthetic upper scuffs easily
For minor scuffs, try gently wiping the area with a damp cloth. For more persistent marks, a non-abrasive shoe cleaner designed for synthetic materials can be used following product instructions.
