Troubleshooting
Laces keep coming undone
Ensure laces are tied securely with a double knot. Check if laces are worn out; consider replacing them if they are slippery.
Slightly tight fit
Wear with thicker socks for a snugger feel, or wear for short periods to allow the material to naturally conform to the foot. If significantly tight, consider a larger size.
Dirt accumulation on upper
Gently wipe with a slightly damp cloth. For stubborn marks, use a mild soap diluted with water and a soft brush, then wipe clean with a damp cloth.
