What kind of socks should I wear with these sneakers?

It depends on the activity and weather. For everyday use, standard athletic socks are fine. For light hiking, consider socks that wick away moisture.

Troubleshooting

Quicklace system feels loose.

Tighten the Quicklace system by pulling on the laces until the shoe fits snugly. If the laces are frayed or damaged, consider replacing them.

Shoes feel uncomfortable after extended wear.

Ensure the shoes are the correct size and the Quicklace system is not too tight. Consider using different socks or inserting a new insole for added comfort.
