Troubleshooting

Shoe feels too tight or causes discomfort

Ensure you have the correct UK size. Try wearing thinner socks or loosening the laces. If the issue persists after a break-in period, consider if the fit is suitable for your foot shape.

Tread appears to be wearing down quickly

Inspect the surfaces you typically run on. High-abrasion surfaces can accelerate wear. Ensure you are using the correct shoe for the activity; these are primarily for road running and light trails.

Discoloration of the "Hi Octane" colorway

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or harsh chemicals. Clean gently with mild soap and water as per care instructions.
