Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable.
Check your lacing; ensure it's not too tight. Allow for a break-in period as materials may soften. If discomfort persists, consider if the size is appropriate, especially if you have wider feet.
Visible dirt and stains on mesh or leather parts.
For mesh, use a soft brush with a mild soap and water solution, then wipe clean. For leather, use a damp cloth. For stubborn stains, a specialized sneaker cleaner can be used, following product instructions carefully. Always air dry.
Squeaking sound when walking.
Often, squeaking can come from the insole rubbing against the sole. Try removing and reinserting the insole, or applying a small amount of baby powder underneath it. If the squeak persists, Info needed: [Identify if the squeak originates from the outsole, which might indicate a manufacturing issue or wear.]
Bad odor coming from the shoes.
Ensure shoes are fully dry after use. Remove insoles and air them out separately. Use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb odors. Wash laces if they are visibly dirty.

- Leather Overlays: For real and synthetic leather parts, wipe clean with a damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a leather cleaner specifically designed for athletic footwear, following the product instructions.
