Troubleshooting
Unusual noise from shoes
This can sometimes occur due to trapped air or minor outsole irregularities. If it persists and causes discomfort, check for debris within the tread pattern or contact customer support.
Slipping sensation
Ensure the shoes are laced correctly for a secure fit. If the issue persists, check if the outsole has excessive wear or if the running surface is particularly slick. The traction is optimized for asphalt.
Discomfort after initial runs
It's normal to experience a brief break-in period. Try wearing them for shorter runs initially. If discomfort persists, ensure you have the correct size and consider if the 8mm drop suits your biomechanics.
