Troubleshooting
Uneven fit or discomfort
Ensure laces are tied properly, not too tight or too loose. Try wearing with different types of socks. If the issue persists, the size may not be correct for your foot.
Material discoloration
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Clean with appropriate methods for mesh and synthetic materials. Do not use harsh chemicals.
Reduced cushioning effectiveness over time
