Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure you have selected the correct size based on Nike's sizing chart. Some materials may require a brief break-in period. Consider using thinner socks if the fit is snug.
Traction feels inconsistent
Check the waffle outsole for any debris or mud that might be obstructing the pattern. Clean the outsole with a damp cloth if necessary.
Suede material looks worn or stained
Use a suede brush to restore the nap and remove superficial dirt. For stains, a specialized suede eraser is recommended. Protect suede with a waterproofing spray if desired.
