Troubleshooting
Shoe feels too tight or uncomfortable.
Ensure you have the correct size. Check your lacing — try loosening the laces, especially over the instep. Wear appropriate socks.
Foot odor develops after wear.
Allow shoes to air out completely between wears. Remove insoles and air them separately. Consider using shoe deodorizers or odor-absorbing inserts.
Slipping on wet surfaces.
While the rubber outsole offers good traction, always exercise caution on wet or slippery surfaces. Check the outsole for any debris or excessive wear that might reduce grip and clean if necessary.
Upper material appears dirty or stained.
Gently wipe the affected area with a soft, damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Avoid scrubbing aggressively or using harsh chemicals, which can damage the material.
Squeaking sound when walking.
This can sometimes be caused by moisture or friction between the insole and the shoe's interior. Try removing and reinserting the insole, or applying a small amount of talcum powder underneath it. Ensure the shoe is completely dry.
