Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring not to overtighten. If still uncomfortable, consider if the size is appropriate for your foot width.
Reduced grip on wet surfaces
Ensure the Continental rubber outsole is clean and free from mud or debris. While designed for grip, extremely slippery conditions may still pose a challenge.
Discomfort during longer runs
These shoes are optimized for middle distances. For significantly longer runs, consider a shoe with more extensive cushioning or stability features tailored to endurance.
Foam feels too firm initially
The Lightstrike Pro foam may require a short break-in period. Wear them for shorter runs first to allow them to adapt to your foot.
