Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Try wearing thinner socks or consider if a larger size is needed. The padded collar may require a short break-in period.

Sole appears to be separating

Ensure the shoes are not exposed to excessive heat. Check for damage to stitching. For minor separation, a strong adhesive designed for footwear may be applied carefully. Contact customer support if separation is significant.

Insole uncomfortable or misplaced

Remove the insole, check for damage, and reinsert it correctly. If the discomfort persists, consider a replacement insole designed for trainers.

Laces fraying or breaking

Replace laces with standard trainer laces of a similar length. Waxed laces can offer increased durability.
