Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or too loose.
Adjust the lacing. For a tighter fit, pull the laces more firmly; for a looser fit, slacken them. Ensure the laces are tied securely to maintain the adjusted fit.
Reduced cushioning or responsiveness.
Ensure the Boost midsole is clean. Accumulated dirt can slightly dampen the responsive feel. Check for any damage to the midsole structure, though this is rare.
Slipping or lack of traction.
Clean the rubber outsole thoroughly. Worn-out outsoles may need replacement if significantly degraded. Avoid using the shoes on excessively wet or oily surfaces where traction is compromised.
Primeknit upper feels uncomfortable.
Ensure you have the correct size. Try adjusting the lacing to better accommodate your foot shape. Wear appropriate athletic socks to enhance comfort.
