Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
Getting started with your Adizero SL Shoes is straightforward:
- Lacing: Utilize the protective lace closure system. Thread the laces through all eyelets. For a more secure fit, consider using a runner's knot at the top eyelets.
- Fit Adjustment: Tighten the laces evenly, ensuring your foot feels secure without excessive pressure points. There should be a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe.
Compatibility
These shoes are designed for:
- Running Surfaces: Best suited for road, track, and paved surfaces due to their specialized sole design.
- Activity Types: Optimal for speed training, short to mid-distance races, and daily runs where pace is a priority.
- Wear: Primarily for athletic performance, but comfortable enough for light, active casual wear.
Care
Proper care will extend the life and maintain the performance of your shoes:
- Cleaning: The Adizero SL shoes are machine washable at 40 degrees Celsius. Remove laces and insoles before washing. Place shoes in a mesh laundry bag to protect them and your washing machine.
- Drying: DO NOT tumble dry. Air dry the shoes away from direct heat or sunlight. Stuffing them with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain their shape.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from extreme temperatures. Avoid leaving them in direct sunlight for extended periods when not in use.
