Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure laces are loosened before putting on. Wear with appropriate athletic socks. If still too tight after initial wear, the knit upper may stretch slightly over time. Consider trying a half-size larger if discomfort persists.
Traction feels inconsistent
Ensure the outsole is clean and free from dust or debris. Wipe the soles with a damp cloth if they become slick. Traction may vary on different court surfaces.
Cushioning feels stiff initially
The React foam and Zoom Air cushioning may require a short break-in period. Wear the shoes for a few practice sessions to allow the materials to conform to your foot.
Upper material appears dirty
Gently wipe the knit upper with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid excessive scrubbing which could damage the fabric.
