Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight initially.
The Relaxed Fit® design and memory foam insole may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially to allow them to conform to your foot shape.
Difficulty sliding foot in.
Ensure the Heel Pillow™ area is not obstructed. Try using a shoehorn if needed, although the design is intended for hands-free use.
Insole feels flat after prolonged use.
The Air-Cooled Memory Foam® may compress over time. Consider replacing the insole if comfort significantly decreases. Hand wash insoles and air dry completely.
Slight odor development.
The charcoal-infused insole helps control odor. Ensure shoes are aired out after use and consider occasional cleaning of the insole.
