Troubleshooting

Slipping on the court

Ensure the outsole is clean and free from debris. If the issue persists, the traction may have diminished due to wear; consider replacing the shoes.

Foot discomfort or pressure points

Loosen the laces slightly or adjust the lacing pattern. If discomfort continues, the shoe's width or shape may not be ideal for your foot. Consider trying a different size or model.

Laces fraying or breaking

Replace the laces with a similar length and material. Ensure laces are not tied too tightly, which can cause premature wear.

Insole feels flat or unsupportive

The shoe may require an aftermarket insole for added support. Ensure any added insole does not negatively impact the shoe's fit.
