Troubleshooting
Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable
Ensure you have selected the correct size. Wear with appropriate socks. The EVA midsole may require a short break-in period for optimal comfort.
Traction feels reduced on wet surfaces
The XT-600 rubber outsole provides grip, but performance on very wet surfaces may be reduced. Clean the outsole periodically to remove debris that could affect traction.
Discoloration or marks on the upper
Use a specialized sneaker cleaner or a mild soap and water solution with a soft cloth. Test any cleaning solution on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid machine washing.
