Troubleshooting
Discomfort or rubbing during first wear
This is common with new performance footwear. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase duration to allow them to break in. Ensure laces are tied correctly for optimal support.
Reduced cushioning over time
The cushioning technology may degrade after extensive use (typically 300-500 miles). Consider replacing the trainers to maintain optimal support and shock absorption.
Slipping heel
Check the lacing technique. Try a 'heel lock' lacing method to secure the heel more firmly. Ensure the correct shoe size and width have been selected.
