Troubleshooting

Sizing feels too tight

The Elite Active 255 Trainers are noted to run small. Consider purchasing a half or full size larger than your usual size. If already purchased, break them in gradually or consider using shoe stretchers if the fit is only slightly snug.

Tread wear on the outsole

Normal wear and tear is expected with regular use. If significant wear occurs rapidly, check for any unusual gait patterns or ensure you are not using them for activities beyond their intended casual use.

Discoloration of suede or nylon

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Clean gently with a damp cloth. For stubborn marks on suede, a suede brush may be used carefully. Ensure shoes are completely dry before storing.

Reduced cushioning over time

The Ortholite insole provides long-lasting cushioning, but it can compress with extensive use. Consider replacing the insoles with new ones for a refresh in comfort.
