Troubleshooting
Squeaking sound from the sole
This can sometimes occur with new Air units. Try flexing the shoe gently or wearing them for a short period to break them in. Ensure no debris is trapped within the Air unit.
Discomfort or pressure points
Ensure you have the correct size and width. The unique sole may require a brief break-in period. If discomfort persists, consider the fit and construction for your specific foot type.
Scuffs on textured overlays
Gently wipe the affected area with a soft, damp cloth. For minor scuffs on leather elements, a specialized leather cleaner might be used cautiously. Avoid abrasive cleaning methods.
