Shoes feel too tight

Laces coming undone frequently
Ensure laces are tied securely using a double knot. Consider replacing laces with a textured pair for better grip.
Slipping during play
Ensure the outsole is clean from dust and debris. If the issue persists, the shoe may not be suitable for your playing style or court conditions.
