Troubleshooting

Sizing feels slightly off

Ensure laces are adjusted correctly. If persistent, consider trying a different size, as fit can vary slightly between individuals.

Dirt on PVC accents is difficult to remove

Try using a slightly firmer brush with a mild soap solution, focusing on the affected area. Wipe clean with a damp cloth and allow to air dry.

Reduced cushioning over time

Discoloration of mesh material

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can cause fading. Clean gently as per care instructions and dry in shade.
