Troubleshooting
Laces keep coming undone
Ensure you are tying a secure double knot. Consider using different lacing techniques or lace locks if the issue persists.
Slight discomfort on first wear
This is common with new footwear. Wear them for short periods initially to allow them to break in. Ensure they are laced correctly for your foot shape.
Material scuffing easily
While durable, the materials may be susceptible to scuffs. Avoid abrasive surfaces and clean scuffs promptly with a damp cloth and mild cleaner.
