FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for walking or casual wear?
While comfortable, their design and technology are optimized for running performance. For casual wear, they may feel overly responsive or structured compared to lifestyle shoes.
How do I know if I have the right size?
Ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe when standing. The heel should feel secure without excessive slipping.
What is the main advantage of the "Ultra Boost Light" compared to previous models?
The primary advantage is the reduced weight, achieved through updated materials and design, while maintaining or enhancing the signature Boost energy return and cushioning.
Can these shoes be worn in wet conditions?
The Primeknit upper can absorb water. While they can be worn in light rain, they are not waterproof and may become heavy when wet. Ensure thorough drying afterward.
How often should I replace my running shoes?
It is generally recommended to replace running shoes every 300-500 miles (approx. 500-800 km) or when visible signs of wear appear, such as worn-out cushioning or outsole tread.
What does "Triple Black" refer to?
"Triple Black" indicates that the shoe features a monochromatic design where all primary components – the upper, sole, and outsole – are black.
Troubleshooting
Shoe feels too tight or loose.
Adjust the lacing system for a more personalized fit. Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. For minor tightness, wearing them for short periods can help them adapt to your foot.
Reduced energy return over time.
While Boost technology is durable, performance may slightly decrease after extensive use. Ensure the shoes are clean, and consider that the lifespan of peak performance is finite for any running shoe.
Discomfort or rubbing during runs.
Ensure socks are appropriate for running. Check for any debris inside the shoe. Try adjusting the lacing or wearing the shoes for shorter distances initially to allow for a break-in period.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These shoes are ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure you have the correct UK size for a proper fit. We recommend trying them on indoors before outdoor use.
Compatibility: Designed primarily for running on roads, pavements, and treadmills. While the outsole offers traction, they are not specialized trail running shoes.
Care:
- Cleaning: Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth with mild soap and water. Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents, as this can damage the materials and cushioning.
- Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Consider using shoe trees to maintain shape.
