Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Loosen the laces and adjust the fit. Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. If the issue persists, consider if the size is correct for your foot.

Squeaking sound from shoes

This can sometimes occur due to friction between components. Try wearing thicker socks or inserting an anti-odor/anti-moisture powder inside the shoe. Ensure the insoles are properly seated.

Laces fraying or breaking

Replace the laces with a new pair. Ensure they are tied securely but not excessively tight to prevent undue stress.

Discomfort during wear

Ensure the shoes are properly broken in. If discomfort persists, check the fit and consider if the shoe's support features align with your foot type.
