Troubleshooting
Laces becoming undone frequently
Ensure laces are tied securely with a double knot if necessary. Consider replacing laces if they are worn or slippery.
Slight discomfort during initial wear
This is common with new shoes. Wear them for short periods initially to allow them to break in. Ensure the lacing is not too tight.
Reduced traction on wet surfaces
While the rubber outsole offers good grip, always exercise caution on very wet or slippery surfaces. Ensure the outsole is clean from debris.
