Troubleshooting

Squeaking sound during movement

This can sometimes occur with new shoes due to friction between layers. Ensure laces are tied properly and walk around to break them in. If it persists, a small amount of talcum powder under the insole might help.

Furry tongue is getting matted

Gently brush the fur with a soft-bristled brush to restore its texture. Avoid using water or harsh cleaning agents directly on the fur.

Traction feels reduced on certain surfaces

Ensure the icy blue outsole is clean and free from debris. Wipe it down with a damp cloth. Some indoor court surfaces may inherently have less grip than others.

Discomfort around the ankle

Verify that the laces are tied correctly, providing adequate support without being too tight. The quilted collar is designed for comfort, but allow a break-in period if the shoe feels stiff initially.
