FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

The product description does not specify wide widths. It's recommended to check available size options or consider trying them on if possible, as the standard fit may not accommodate wider feet comfortably.

What type of runner are these shoes best for?

These shoes are designed for neutral runners who need flexibility, cushioning, and versatility. They are ideal for daily training and shorter to mid-distance runs.

How do I clean the mesh upper?

Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt. For stains, gently wipe the mesh with a damp cloth and a mild soap solution. Avoid machine washing or harsh chemicals.

What is the main benefit of the Charged Cushioning® midsole?

The Charged Cushioning® midsole uses compression-molded foam to provide a balance of responsiveness and durability, offering a comfortable and energetic feel during your runs.

Can I use these shoes for marathon running?

While they offer good cushioning, they are best suited for training runs and shorter distances. For marathon distances, runners might prefer shoes with more advanced cushioning systems designed for extreme endurance.

What is the heel-to-toe drop?

The shoes have a 10mm offset, which is a standard drop suitable for a wide range of runners.

Are these shoes waterproof?

No, the mesh upper is designed for breathability and is not waterproof. They are best suited for dry conditions.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or loose.

Adjust the standard tie laces. For a tighter fit, pull laces more firmly. For a looser fit, loosen the knots and re-tie with less tension. Ensure the sockliner is correctly positioned for optimal comfort.

Reduced cushioning or responsiveness over time.

The Charged Cushioning® midsole's effectiveness can decrease with extensive use. Consider replacing the shoes after approximately 300-500 miles, or when you notice a significant reduction in shock absorption.

Discomfort or blisters during runs.

Ensure you have the correct shoe size and width. Try different lacing techniques to improve fit. Wearing appropriate moisture-wicking socks can also help prevent friction.

Soles showing excessive wear.

The solid rubber outsole is designed for durability in high-impact zones. If excessive wear is noticed prematurely, ensure you are running on appropriate surfaces (avoiding abrasive materials) and that your gait is neutral.
