Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose
Adjust the lacing system. Ensure the laces are tied securely but not overly tight. Consider the sock thickness you are wearing.
Reduced grip on the outsole
Inspect the Adiwear outsole for excessive wear or embedded debris. Clean the outsole with water and a brush. If significantly worn, consider replacement.
Discomfort during runs
Ensure you have the correct size and fit. Break in the shoes with shorter runs before attempting longer distances. Check for any internal seams or debris causing irritation.
Upper material feels stiff
The mesh upper may require a short break-in period. Wear the shoes for short walks or runs initially to allow them to mold to your feet.
