Troubleshooting
Shoe feels too tight
Loosen the laces, especially around the midfoot, and re-tie them. If the issue persists, consider if the size is appropriate or if insoles are being used.
Discoloration on silver overlays
Gently clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or scrubbing, which can damage the finish.
Reduced grip on wet surfaces
Ensure the sole is clean. While designed for general use, these trainers may offer less grip on very wet or slippery surfaces compared to specialized footwear.
