Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Allow for a break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time. Loosening the laces can also provide temporary relief.
Traction seems reduced on dusty courts
Wipe the outsoles with a damp cloth to remove dust buildup. Sometimes, a quick wipe on a clean court surface can help.
Color bleeding on socks
This can occasionally happen with new, brightly colored footwear, especially if exposed to excessive moisture. Ensure the shoes are dry before wearing. Washing socks separately for the first few wears might be advisable.
