Troubleshooting
Slight stiffness upon first wear.
This is common with new footwear. Wear them for short periods initially to allow them to break in and conform to your foot shape.
Difficulty cleaning specific stains on recycled upper material.
Test cleaning solutions on an inconspicuous area first. Use a specialized fabric cleaner for synthetic materials if general soap and water are insufficient, following product instructions carefully.
Reduced cushioning over time.
While GEL technology is durable, cushioning can naturally diminish with extensive use. Consider replacing the shoes if significant loss of comfort and support is experienced.
