Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure you have selected the correct size. The FLUIDFIT Cage can offer a snug fit; try lacing them more loosely initially and gradually tightening as needed. The materials may also offer some give over time with wear.
Reduced cushioning or support after long use
The GEL™ Technology Cushioning and GUIDANCE TRUSSTIC Support System are designed for longevity, but performance may gradually decrease with extensive mileage. Consider replacing the shoes when support or cushioning significantly diminishes.
Slipping on wet surfaces
While the Rubber Outsole provides good traction, performance on extremely wet or slick surfaces can be reduced. Exercise caution in such conditions.
