Troubleshooting
Initial tightness or discomfort
Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow them to break in. Ensure you have selected the correct size and width.
Slipping or lack of grip
Ensure the outsole is clean and free from debris. The grip is optimized for typical road and gym surfaces; performance may vary on highly specialized or slippery surfaces.
Material wear after moderate use
Inspect the shoes for any manufacturing defects. For normal wear and tear, this indicates the shoes have reached the end of their lifespan for strenuous activity.
