Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure you have selected the correct size. If newly purchased, wear them around the house for short periods to allow the materials to conform to your foot shape. Consider using thinner socks.
Laces fraying or breaking
Replace laces with a similar type and length. Proper lacing techniques can also reduce stress on the laces.
Soles showing wear after moderate use
Check for any embedded objects in the sole. For extensive wear, professional shoe repair may be an option, though these are primarily casual trainers.
Discoloration on white upper
Gently clean the affected area with a damp cloth and mild soap. Address stains promptly to prevent them from setting.
