Troubleshooting
Slipping sensation
Ensure socks are worn for better grip. If the issue persists, consider if a different size or width is needed, though this model is designed for a relaxed fit.
Reduced cushioning over time
While Glide-Step technology is durable, cushioning can naturally decrease with extensive use. For prolonged comfort, consider replacing the shoes after significant wear.
Difficulty removing the trainers
Ensure feet are dry when putting on and taking off. Gentle wiggling and pulling from the heel tab should assist in removal.
