Troubleshooting
Reduced cushioning feel over time
The AMPLIFOAM cushioning may compress with extensive use. For optimal performance, consider replacing shoes after significant mileage or noticeable wear.
Feet feel too warm during runs
Ensure socks are made of breathable, moisture-wicking material. If the issue persists, check if the shoe is the correct size and consider if the ambient temperature is excessively high.
Slipping on wet surfaces
The rubber sole provides traction on dry to moderately wet surfaces. For very wet or slippery conditions, exercise caution as grip may be reduced.
