Troubleshooting
Shoe feels too tight or uncomfortable
Ensure you have selected the correct size. Try wearing them with athletic socks and allow for a break-in period of a few wearings.
Traction is reduced on dusty courts
Wipe the outsole with a damp cloth to remove dust and debris, restoring grip.
Laces are difficult to keep tied
Ensure laces are tied securely with a double knot. Consider replacing them with textured laces for better grip.
Materials show signs of wear quickly
Avoid using the shoes for activities other than intended (e.g., casual wear on abrasive surfaces). Clean and dry them properly after each use.
