Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or cause discomfort.

Ensure you are wearing appropriate athletic socks. Try lacing the shoes differently to adjust pressure points. If discomfort persists, verify you have the correct size; consider if a different width or half-size might be more suitable.

Reduced grip on wet surfaces.

The Novablast 5 is optimized for road conditions. While it offers some wet-surface traction, performance may be reduced. Run with caution on very wet or slick surfaces.

Cushioning feels too firm.

The FF BLAST™ PLUS ECO cushioning provides a responsive feel. It may take a few runs to break in and adapt to your stride. Ensure you are not over-tightening the laces, which can make the cushioning feel firmer.

Upper material appears worn after minimal use.

Inspect for any sharp objects in your running environment or debris caught in the mesh. Ensure proper cleaning methods are used to avoid material damage.
