Troubleshooting
Shoe feels too tight
Ensure you have the correct size. If new, wear them for short periods to break them in. Loosen the laces to create more room.
Discomfort after prolonged wear
Verify the fit and consider using supportive insoles if needed. Ensure the laces are adjusted correctly for your foot.
Squeaking noise
This can sometimes occur due to friction between shoe components. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder under the insole or on the tongue.
Outsole grip feels reduced
Clean the outsole with water and a brush to remove any dirt or debris that may be reducing traction.
