Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Loosen the traditional lacing system and re-tie, ensuring the laces are not overtightened. Consider if the size is appropriate for your foot.
Lack of cushioning perceived
Ensure the protective packaging has been fully removed from the insole. The EVA midsole is designed for responsiveness; break-in period might be needed.
Excessive heat or moisture in shoes
Ensure the Double Jacquard Mesh Upper is not obstructed. Clean the mesh if it appears clogged with dirt. Consider wearing moisture-wicking socks.
Slipping heel
Adjust the lacing to create a more secure heel lock. Ensure the heel collar padding is positioned correctly around your ankle.
