Troubleshooting
The trainers feel uncomfortable or rub in certain spots.
Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. Adjust your lacing technique to loosen or tighten specific areas. Try wearing them for short periods initially to allow for a break-in period.
My trainers are squeaking when I walk.
Often, squeaking comes from the insole rubbing against the inside of the shoe. Try removing the insole, cleaning the area, and reinserting it. A thin layer of baby powder under the insole can also help. If the squeak persists, check the sole for any trapped debris.
The trainers are dirty or stained.
For general dirt, wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap. For tougher stains, use a soft brush and a dedicated shoe cleaner. Always air dry away from direct heat. Do not put them in a washing machine or dryer.
