Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Loosen the laces by adjusting the straps within the rubber caging. Allow for a break-in period as the materials will adapt to your foot shape over time.
Discoloration on the white upper
Gently clean the affected area with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals. For stubborn marks, a specialized sneaker cleaner may be used cautiously according to its instructions.
Laces are difficult to adjust
Ensure the laces are threaded correctly through the rubber caging. Try pulling the laces evenly to achieve a snug yet comfortable fit.
