Troubleshooting
Sizing feels too tight
As these trainers are noted to run small, consider purchasing a size up from your usual size for a more comfortable fit.
Soles feel stiff initially
The EVA midsole may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially to allow them to conform to your foot.
Traction is reduced on wet surfaces
While the rubber outsole provides grip, exercise caution on very wet or slippery surfaces. Ensure the outsole is free from debris that might affect traction.
