Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring even pressure. If still uncomfortable, consider if this is the correct size or if break-in is required.
Reduced cushioning effectiveness
Over time, cushioning can compress. Ensure the shoes are not excessively worn and that they are clean, as debris can affect feel.
Difficulty cleaning the mesh or TPU
Use a soft brush with a mild soap and water solution. Gently scrub the affected areas and wipe clean with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Slipping on the court
Ensure the outsole is clean and free from dirt or dust. For persistent issues, check if the tread pattern is worn down, indicating the need for replacement.
