Troubleshooting
Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable
Ensure laces are loosened before putting them on, then adjust for a snug but comfortable fit. The textile upper will gradually conform to your foot with wear.
Minor scuffs on the rubber sole
Use a damp cloth or a soft brush with a bit of toothpaste to gently scrub away scuff marks from the rubber parts.
Color transfer from shoes to socks
This can sometimes happen with new, dark-colored textiles. Washing the inside of the shoes with cold water and allowing them to air dry may help reduce initial color bleed. It typically subsides with wear.
