Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable.
Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring there's enough space in the toe box. Consider if the size is correct; a professional fitting might be beneficial.
Reduced energy return or cushioning feel.
Over time, cushioning can compress. Ensure the shoes are appropriate for your running style and mileage; consider replacement if they have high mileage.
Upper material seems worn or damaged.
Inspect the upper for any tears or holes. If minor, carefully stitching might help. For significant damage, it may indicate the shoes have reached the end of their lifespan.
Heel feels insecure or slips.
Ensure the laces are tied properly, using the heel lock lacing technique if necessary. Check if the 3D heel counter is intact.
