Troubleshooting
Laces come undone easily
Ensure laces are tied securely with a double knot. Consider replacing laces with a textured pair for better grip.
Slight stiffness upon first wear
Wear the shoes around the house for a few short periods to allow the materials to break in and conform to your foot.
