Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too firm initially
The Shox cushioning may require a break-in period. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase usage time.
Laces won't stay tied
Ensure you are using a secure lacing knot. If laces are old or slippery, consider replacing them with new ones.
Discoloration on the upper material
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Clean gently with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary.
Uneven wear on the sole
Check your walking gait. Ensure the shoes are the correct size and fit. Rotate with other footwear if worn daily.
