Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or too loose.
Ensure you are wearing the correct UK size. Adjust lacing to achieve a snug but comfortable fit. If the issue persists, consider trying a different size or width if available.
Reduced traction on wet surfaces.
While the rubber outsole offers good grip, extremely slick surfaces can still be challenging. Ensure the outsole is clean and free from debris. For significantly wet conditions, exercise extra caution.

Verify the shoes are properly laced. Ensure they are the correct size and width for your feet. Break in the shoes gradually with shorter runs before attempting long distances.
