Troubleshooting

Squeaking noise from sole

This can sometimes occur with new shoes. Try walking on different surfaces or inserting a thin insert to alter the pressure points.

Color transfer from accents

If the yellow accents show signs of bleeding onto socks or other materials, ensure the shoes are completely dry and avoid prolonged contact with light-colored fabrics in wet conditions.

Laces come undone easily

Use a double knot when tying the laces or consider replacing them with textured laces that offer better grip.
