Troubleshooting

Shoe feels tight or uncomfortable

Ensure laces are not overly tightened. Try wearing with different socks. Allow a break-in period as the materials adjust to your foot.

Distressed appearance is not as expected

The distressed effect is intentional and varies between pairs. Examine the specific detailing on your pair; if there are manufacturing defects, contact customer support.

Squeaking noise during walking

This can sometimes occur with new shoes. Check for debris in the sole grooves. If the noise persists and is bothersome, consult care instructions for potential lubrication of friction points (use with caution).
