Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Wear with thinner socks or try loosening the laces. If the issue persists after breaking them in, consider trying a different size.
Soles feel slippery on wet surfaces
These shoes offer moderate traction. For very wet or slick conditions, exercise caution or consider shoes with more aggressive tread patterns.
Color transfer on socks
