Troubleshooting
Boots feel tight or uncomfortable.
Ensure you have the correct size. If you're wearing thick socks, you may need a larger size.
Boots are difficult to put on.
Use a boot puller or loosen the laces completely to make it easier to slide your foot in. The neoprene lining should help.
Reduced traction.
Check the felt soles for wear and tear. Replace them when they become worn down.

Ensure the laces are properly tied and consider using a double knot.
