Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure you have the correct size. Try loosening the laces and re-lacing them, focusing on distributing pressure evenly across the top of your foot. The engineered mesh and plush collar are designed to adapt over time.
Reduced cushioning effect over time
The FF Blast Plus Eco foam and PureGEL technology are designed for durability. If you notice a significant reduction in cushioning, it may indicate the shoes have reached the end of their lifespan and should be replaced. Check for excessive wear on the outsole.
Slipping on wet surfaces
While the hybrid ASICSGRIP outsole offers good traction, extreme wet conditions can be challenging for any shoe. Ensure your stride is controlled and be cautious on very slick surfaces. Clean the outsole periodically to remove debris that might affect grip.
