Troubleshooting
Slightly stiff feel on first wear
This is normal for a performance shoe with a propulsion plate. Wear for a few shorter runs to break them in and allow the cushioning and plate to adapt to your stride.
Foot fatigue on very slow runs
The Hyperion Max 3 is optimized for faster paces. For recovery or very slow runs, consider a shoe with softer, more plush cushioning and less aggressive geometry.
Traction issues on wet surfaces
While designed for asphalt, performance on very wet or slick surfaces may vary. Ensure the outsole is clean and free from debris. For consistently wet conditions, consider shoes with more aggressive tread patterns.
