Troubleshooting
Unusual squeaking noise
This can sometimes occur with new shoes. Try wearing them for a few more sessions, or check if the insole is slightly loose and reseat it.
Slipping sensation
Ensure laces are tied correctly for a secure fit. If the issue persists, consider if the shoe size is appropriate or if the outsole tread is worn.
Discomfort after extended wear
Check if the shoes fit correctly; ensure there is enough room in the toe box and the heel is snug. Consider if the shoe is the right type for the activity, as these are general trainers.
