Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring a snug but not overly constricting fit. If still uncomfortable, consider if the size is appropriate for your foot.

Traction feels reduced on dusty courts

Wipe the outsoles with a damp cloth to remove accumulated dust and restore grip.

Laces fraying or breaking

Replace with a new set of durable shoelaces. Consider purchasing Nike replacement laces or similar quality.
