Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure you have selected the correct size. If the width is the issue, consider if the regular width suits your foot type. Wearing thinner socks might offer slight relief.
Laces are difficult to secure with the cover
Ensure laces are tied snugly but not excessively tight before engaging the lace cover. The cover is designed for a clean look and may require a neat lace tie.
Molded details feel stiff
The molded details are part of the design and may require a short break-in period. Wear the shoes for short durations initially to allow them to adapt to your foot.
