Troubleshooting
Traction seems reduced on dusty courts.
Wipe the outsole with a damp cloth to remove accumulated dust and restore grip.
Fit feels too snug after initial wear.
Ensure laces are properly adjusted. If still too tight, consider if the size is correct for your child's foot. These shoes are designed for a snug, performance fit.
Cushioning feels insufficient for long games.
While designed for moderate cushioning, consider adding thin, supportive insoles if additional padding is desired. Ensure the shoes are broken in properly.
