Troubleshooting
Quicklace system not tightening properly
Ensure the lace ends are correctly threaded through the lock. Check for any debris obstructing the mechanism. If damaged, consider replacement parts.
Discomfort or rubbing during wear
Adjust the Quicklace tension for a more personalized fit. Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. Break in the shoes gradually with shorter wear periods.
Reduced grip on wet surfaces
Clean the outsole to remove mud or debris. Be aware that aggressive lug patterns can have limitations on extremely smooth or icy surfaces. Consider the intended use environment.
