Troubleshooting
Uneven wear on the outsole
Ensure you are using the appropriate footwear for your activity. For this model, prioritize casual walking and everyday use rather than aggressive sports.
Discomfort in the heel or arch
Verify you have the correct size. Consider using aftermarket insoles if additional arch support is needed, but ensure they fit within the shoe without compromising the overall fit.
Reduced cushioning over time
The GEL™ cushioning is designed for durability, but like all cushioning, it may compress with extensive use. Regular cleaning and avoiding excessive stress can help prolong its effectiveness.
Leather components showing signs of creasing
Some creasing is normal with leather. To minimize it, ensure the shoes are stored properly and avoid over-tightening laces, which can create stress points.
