What type of socks are best with these trainers?

Can I wear these in wet weather?
While they can withstand light moisture, they are not waterproof. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain and to care for them promptly if they get wet.
Troubleshooting
Laces are difficult to tie or come undone easily.
Try a different lacing technique or double knotting the laces. Ensure the laces are not excessively worn.
Slight discomfort after initial wear.
This is common with new footwear. Wear them for short periods initially to allow them to break in. Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks.
Noticeable creasing on the upper material.
Creasing is a natural part of footwear wear. To minimize, avoid over-tightening laces and store them with shoe trees or stuffed with paper when not in use.
