Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose
The no-tie laces can be adjusted. Carefully untie and re-tie the laces to achieve a more personalized fit, either tightening or loosening the upper as needed.
Primeknit upper snagged or damaged
Minor snags can sometimes be carefully trimmed with small scissors. For larger tears, professional shoe repair may be an option, but prevention through careful wear is recommended.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces
The rubber outsole provides traction, but performance may vary on highly polished or wet surfaces. Ensure the outsole is clean from debris.
