Troubleshooting
Shoe feels too tight or stiff
The mesh upper and TPU wings may require a break-in period. Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow them to mold to your foot shape.
Difficulty cleaning the textured mesh or honeycomb pattern
Use a soft-bristled brush (like an old toothbrush) with mild soap and water to gently scrub dirt from textured areas. Rinse with a damp cloth and allow to air dry.
Discoloration of the red TPU wings
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or harsh cleaning agents. Clean with a damp cloth only.
