Troubleshooting
Uneven fit or discomfort
Ensure the laces are evenly tightened. If discomfort persists, the shoe may not be the correct size or shape for your foot. Consider trying a different size or model.
Traction issues on dusty courts
Wipe the outsole with a damp cloth or use a specialized shoe cleaner to remove dust buildup. Allow the outsole to dry before resuming play.
Color transfer on socks or other materials
This can occur with brightly colored shoes, especially when new or wet. Ensure the shoes are fully dry and consider wearing darker colored socks if this is a concern.
