Troubleshooting
Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable
Allow for a break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time. Ensure you have the correct size; consider using thinner socks if the fit is snug.
Soles are slippery on certain surfaces
The rubber outsoles provide grip, but performance can vary on wet or polished surfaces. For increased traction, consider using an aftermarket grip spray or sole inserts designed for enhanced grip.
Discoloration of the black material
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can cause fading. Clean according to the care instructions using appropriate methods to preserve color.
