The 4D midsole is engineered using athlete data to provide precisely tuned cushioning and support in specific zones, offering a unique responsive and stable feel compared to traditional foam midsoles.

The Primeknit upper is a breathable, flexible material that adapts to the shape of your foot, providing a sock-like fit that minimizes irritation and maximizes comfort during activity.
Are these shoes suitable for marathon running?

Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
The Primeknit upper is designed to stretch slightly with wear. Try wearing them with thinner socks initially. If the issue persists after a few wears, consider if the size is appropriate.
Midsole feels unusually firm
The 4D midsole offers a unique, data-driven cushioning profile that differs from traditional EVA foam. Give the shoes a break-in period of several wears to allow them to conform to your foot.
Dirt on the midsole is hard to remove
Use a soft brush or cloth with a mild soap and water solution. Gently scrub the affected area and wipe clean with a damp cloth. Ensure not to saturate the midsole.
