How do I ensure a secure fit?

Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose
Adjust the lace closure. If still uncomfortable, ensure you have the correct size. Refer to the sizing chart if unsure.
Squeaking noises during walking
This can sometimes occur due to friction within the shoe. Ensure laces are properly tied and consider inserting thin insoles if the issue persists.
Discoloration on suede areas

Reduced grip on the outsole
Clean the rubber outsole with water and a brush to remove any embedded dirt or debris that might be affecting traction.
