Troubleshooting

Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable.

Check the lacing and ensure the correct fit. Consider different socks or insoles for better comfort.

Water is leaking into the shoes.

Check for any damage to the GORE-TEX® lining. Ensure the shoes are properly laced. Consider reapplying a waterproofing spray.

Loss of traction on the outsole.

Clean the outsole regularly to remove dirt and debris. If the lugs are significantly worn, it may be time for a replacement.
