Runner Type: These shoes are designed for neutral runners. If you have significant overpronation (where your foot rolls inward excessively), you may require a shoe with more stability features.
Surface: Best suited for asphalt and paved roads due to the durable sole's specific traction properties.
Use: Ideal for training, particularly long runs and daily mileage where maximum cushioning is desired.
To ensure the longevity and performance of your Fresh Foam X More v5 shoes:
Cleaning: Gently clean dirt and mud from the upper and sole using a soft brush or cloth and mild soap with cold water. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive materials. Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as this can damage materials and adhesives.
Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or artificial heat sources, which can cause materials to shrink or crack.
Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
Maintenance: Regularly check laces for wear and replace if necessary. Remove insoles occasionally to air out the inside of the shoes. Info needed: Specific washing instructions (e.g., removable insoles, temperature limits) and recommended replacement frequency based on mileage.
