Troubleshooting
Shoe feels too firm
Ensure you have the correct size and fit. The maximalist midsole may require a break-in period. Try wearing them for shorter runs first.
Traction feels insufficient on wet surfaces
While designed for high grip, extreme wet conditions can reduce traction. Ensure the outsole is clean from debris. These shoes perform best on typical road surfaces.
Discomfort after a run
Check for proper lacing technique to ensure a secure but not overly tight fit. Ensure the shoe size is appropriate. If discomfort persists, consider if the maximalist cushioning suits your biomechanics.
