Troubleshooting
Swoosh is difficult to remove or attach.
Ensure you are pulling or pushing in the correct direction. If attaching, align the hooks on the Swoosh with the slots on the shoe and apply firm, even pressure. If removing, grip the Swoosh firmly and pull steadily away from the shoe.
Elastic straps feel too tight.
The elastic straps are designed for a snug fit. If they feel excessively tight, try flexing your foot within the shoe to help them stretch slightly over time. Ensure you have the correct shoe size, as tightness can also be an indicator of an incorrect fit.
Discoloration on the 'Faded Spruce' upper.
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can cause fading. Clean the upper with a damp cloth and mild soap as per care instructions. Do not use harsh chemicals or bleaching agents.
Dirt or debris stuck in the rubberized tread.
Use a small brush (like an old toothbrush) to carefully dislodge dirt from the grooves of the rubberized toe and heel sections. Follow up with a damp cloth for final cleaning.
