FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for marathons?
While the Adizero EVO SL provides great energy return, it is primarily designed for training; choose based on your preference for a responsive, lightweight feel over heavy stability.
Can I use these for cross-training?
They are ideal for gym workouts and speed training due to their lightweight design, though they are optimized specifically for forward-motion running.
How do I ensure the correct size?
These follow standard UK sizing for adults. We recommend a thumb-width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe for optimal comfort.
Are they water-resistant?
No, the textile upper is designed for maximum breathability and will allow water to penetrate if running in wet conditions.
How long does the cushioning last?
The lifespan of the midsole depends on your mileage and running surface, but typically ranges between 300 to 500 miles.
Troubleshooting
Feeling of slipping or loose heel
Adjust the lacing by using the 'runner's loop' or 'heel lock' technique at the final eyelet to secure the collar around your ankle.
Outer sole traction feels reduced
Check the outsole for trapped debris or grit. Use a soft brush to remove material from the treads to restore full grip.
Pros and Cons

- High energy return from LightstrikePro

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To achieve the best fit, ensure you wear the type of athletic socks you intend to use for training when trying the shoes on for the first time. The lace closure system allows you to adjust tension across the midfoot; use a runner’s loop at the top eyelet if you experience heel slippage. To maintain the integrity of the textile upper and cushioning, avoid machine washing. Instead, spot clean with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally, away from direct heat sources like radiators, to prevent warping of the foam midsole.
