Troubleshooting
Shoe feels too tight or constricting
Ensure you have selected the correct shoe size. Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring the Generative Support Wings are snug but not overly tight. If the issue persists, consider socks with less cushioning or a different shoe model that offers a wider fit.
BOOST cushioning feels too firm
BOOST foam can feel firmer initially and may require a break-in period. Wear the shoes for shorter periods initially and gradually increase wear time. The cushioning will adapt to your foot over time.
Iridescent finish on side panels losing its luster
Avoid exposing the shoes to harsh chemicals, prolonged direct sunlight, or abrasive cleaning methods. Clean gently with a damp cloth as per the care instructions. Scuffing from heavy impact may affect the finish.
Traction seems inconsistent on court
Ensure the outsole is clean and free from debris, dust, or water, which can significantly reduce grip. Clean the outsole with a damp cloth or a soft brush. Check for excessive wear on the tread pattern.

- Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and dust from the Core Black upper. For stubborn marks, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly.
