Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or stiff
This is common with new leather shoes. Wear them for short periods initially, gradually increasing the duration. Consider using a shoe tree to help stretch the leather gently.
Slight color transfer from neon green branding
Ensure the shoes are completely dry before wearing. If color transfer occurs onto socks, it may diminish with further wear, but avoid prolonged contact with light-colored fabrics when wet.
Reduced grip on the court
Ensure the outsoles are clean and free from debris. Dust or dirt can significantly impact traction. For persistent issues, consider the court surface condition.
