Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Wear the shoes with thin athletic socks initially. If still too tight, consider if a larger size is needed or try lacing them more loosely for the first few wears.
Slipping on the court
Ensure the rubber outsole is clean and free from dust or debris. The grip is maximized on clean court surfaces. If the issue persists, the outsole may be worn.
Reduced cushioning effect
The Lightstrike cushioning is designed for responsiveness. If it feels less effective, ensure the shoes are not damaged and are clean. Cushioning may naturally decrease over extensive use.
Difficulty cleaning synthetic upper
Use a soft brush or cloth with a mild soap solution. Gently scrub stained areas and wipe clean with a damp cloth. Avoid machine washing or submerging the shoes.
