Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight.
Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring even pressure distribution. If still uncomfortable, consider if the size is appropriate or if the laces need to be adjusted for the width of your foot.
Mesh upper feels wet after light rain.
Allow shoes to air dry completely. For future use in damp conditions, consider a water-repellent spray suitable for mesh materials.
Cushioning feels less responsive over time.
The Fresh Foam midsole is designed for comfort; its responsiveness may naturally decrease with extensive use. Ensure the shoes are not being used for activities exceeding their intended purpose (e.g., heavy-duty sports).
