Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable
Ensure you have the correct UK size. If the issue persists after a few wears, the shoe might not be the right fit for your foot shape. Consider trying different lacing techniques to adjust pressure points.
Reduced cushioning or support over time
The cushioning may naturally degrade with extensive use. For optimal performance, consider replacing the shoes after 300-500 miles of running, or when you notice a significant loss of shock absorption.
Soles showing wear and tear
Normal wear and tear on the outsole is expected. If excessive wear is observed on specific areas, it might indicate an issue with your running gait. Consult a running specialist for gait analysis.
