Troubleshooting

Due to variations in screen settings and resolutions, the product color may appear slightly different. Please refer to the product description for color details.
Shoes feel stiff or uncomfortable initially.
New shoes, especially high-tops, may require a break-in period. Wear them for short periods initially to allow them to mold to your feet.
Tread seems to wear down quickly.
While designed for durability, skateboarding can accelerate sole wear. For prolonged skate use, consider using shoes specifically designed for extreme skate conditions.
