Troubleshooting
Discoloration on the purple upper
Gently clean with a mild soap and water solution using a soft cloth or brush. Test any cleaning product on an inconspicuous area first.
Reduced cushioning or support
Ensure the Air Max unit in the heel is not punctured. For general wear and tear, cushioning may naturally reduce over extended periods of heavy use.
Squeaking sound when walking
This can sometimes be caused by moisture trapped between the insole and midsole. Try removing the insole and ensuring both parts are completely dry before reinserting.
