Troubleshooting
Shoe feels too tight
Ensure laces are loosened before putting on the shoe. Adjust lacing to provide more room in the forefoot or midfoot if needed. Consider if the size is appropriate or if a break-in period is required.
Reduced cushioning effect
Check for wear and tear on the sole. If the shoes have accumulated significant mileage (typically over 300-500 miles), the cushioning may have degraded and the shoes may need replacement.
Discomfort during runs
Ensure correct sizing and fit. Experiment with different lacing techniques. If discomfort persists, consult with a running specialist or consider if the shoe type is appropriate for your foot mechanics.
