Troubleshooting
Shoe feels too tight or uncomfortable.
Ensure the laces are adjusted correctly. If the issue persists, consider if this specific size is suitable for your foot shape. Protro models are designed for a snug fit.
Color transfer from darker clothing onto the sail upper.
This is a common issue with lighter colored shoes. It is best to be mindful of wearing dark, new, or easily bleeding fabrics with the sneakers. If transfer occurs, attempt gentle cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap.
Sole appears dirty after use.
Clean the outsole and midsole with a damp cloth or a soft brush. For stubborn marks, a specialized shoe cleaner or a mixture of baking soda and water can be used cautiously.
