Troubleshooting

Sizing feels too tight or narrow

Consider trying a half-size up, or explore alternative models if a wider fit is consistently needed. Ensure feet are measured correctly.

Reduced cushioning after prolonged use

The GEL® cushioning is designed for long-term wear. If comfort significantly decreases, consider replacing the shoes as they may have reached the end of their lifespan.

Appearance of creases or wear on synthetic leather

Creasing is normal with wear. To minimize excessive wear, avoid bending the shoes sharply and follow the recommended care instructions.
