Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Try wearing them with thinner socks or consider if the size is appropriate. Laces can be adjusted for a more relaxed fit.
Reduced cushioning over time
While the cushioning is durable, prolonged heavy use can impact its effectiveness. Ensure the shoes are clean and free from debris that might affect the foam.
Discoloration on the mesh
Wipe gently with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight which can fade colors.
