Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Loosen the lacing system and re-tie, ensuring the laces are not pulled too tightly. Consider wearing thinner socks if the issue persists.
Reduced traction on court
Ensure the rubber outsole is clean. Wipe away any dust, dirt, or debris with a damp cloth. Court conditions can also affect grip.
Discomfort during play
Verify the lacing is adjusted correctly for a snug but not constricting fit. Ensure you have the correct size and consider the possibility of needing additional ankle support if you are accustomed to high-top shoes.
