Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring not to overtighten. If the tightness persists, consider if the size is appropriate or if break-in time is needed.
Discoloration on the upper material
Gently wipe the affected area with a clean, damp cloth. For stubborn marks, use a specialized sneaker cleaner suitable for the material, following product instructions.
