Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose
Adjust the lacing system to achieve a secure yet comfortable fit. Ensure you have selected the correct size; refer to the sizing chart if unsure.
Reduced cushioning or responsiveness over time
Cushioning naturally degrades with extensive use. Consider replacing the shoes after approximately 300-500 miles, or when you notice a significant loss in comfort and support.
Slipping on wet surfaces
While designed for asphalt, traction may be reduced on very wet or slippery surfaces. Exercise caution in such conditions.
