What does the APMA Seal of Acceptance mean?

How do the stretch laces work?
The stretch laces provide a flexible and secure fit without the need for traditional tying. They allow for easy slip-on and removal while conforming to your foot's movement.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose
Adjust the stretch laces by tucking or loosening them to achieve a more personalized fit. If the primary issue is the size, consider exchanging for a different size.
Discomfort after prolonged wear
Ensure the Arch Fit® insole is correctly positioned. If discomfort persists, the shoe may not be the right fit for your foot shape or activity level. Allow a break-in period of a few wears.
Canvas upper looks dirty
Gently wipe the canvas with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn marks, use a small amount of mild soap diluted in water and a soft brush or cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals.
