Troubleshooting
Laces come undone frequently
Ensure laces are tied securely using a double knot. Consider replacing laces with a grippier material if slippage persists.
Slipping on court surfaces
Clean the rubber outsole with a damp cloth to remove dust and debris. Ensure you are playing on a clean court surface.
Discomfort or pressure points
Ensure the shoe size is correct and offers adequate room in the toe box. Break in the shoes gradually with shorter wear periods initially.
Fading of glow-in-the-dark elements
Glow-in-the-dark properties may diminish over time with repeated exposure to light and washing. Expose the shoe to a light source to 'charge' the glow.
