Troubleshooting
Shoe feels too tight or loose
Adjust the lacing pattern. Experiment with different lacing techniques to find a secure yet comfortable fit. Ensure you have the correct size for your foot.
Reduced cushioning or responsiveness over time
This is normal wear and tear. The midsole foams will gradually compress. For best results, consider replacing your shoes after 300-500 miles of use, depending on your running style and surface.
Slipping on wet surfaces
The outsole offers good traction, but performance may be reduced on extremely wet or slippery surfaces. Exercise caution in such conditions.
