Troubleshooting
Foot Discomfort or Blisters
Ensure the correct size and width are selected. Break in the shoes gradually with shorter runs before attempting long distances. Check lacing technique for proper fit and support.
Reduced Cushioning Feel
Cushioning can decrease over time with significant use. Consider replacing the shoes after approximately 500-800 kilometers (300-500 miles) of running.
Overheating or Sweaty Feet
Ensure the engineered mesh upper is clear of debris. Consider using moisture-wicking socks. For very hot conditions, this shoe's breathability is good, but extreme heat may still lead to some moisture buildup.
Slipping on Wet Surfaces
The outsole is designed for road traction. On very wet or slick surfaces, grip may be reduced. Exercise caution and maintain a stable gait.
