Troubleshooting

Shoe feels too tight upon first wear.

The Nike KD 16 is designed for a snug fit. Wear them around the house for short periods to allow the materials to break in and conform to your foot shape. Ensure laces are not overtightened initially.

Traction is poor on certain court surfaces.

Ensure the outsole is clean and free of dust or debris. Some newer shoes may require a brief 'break-in' period for optimal grip. If the issue persists on a specific court type, consider the surface material itself.

Color print appears to be fading after cleaning.

Ensure you are using only a damp cloth with minimal, mild soap. Avoid excessive rubbing or harsh cleaning agents. Always air dry and store away from direct sunlight.
