Troubleshooting
Shoe feels too tight or loose
Adjust lacing to find a secure yet comfortable fit. Ensure you have selected the correct size, as sizing can vary slightly between models.

Ensure socks are appropriate for running. Break in the shoes with shorter runs before attempting longer distances. Check for any internal seams or debris causing irritation.
