Troubleshooting

Discomfort on first wear

The shoes may require a short break-in period. Wear them for shorter durations initially and gradually increase mileage as they conform to your foot.

Laces coming undone

Double-knot the laces securely. Consider replacing laces with a type that offers better grip if this persists.
