Troubleshooting
Spikes are difficult to install or remove
Ensure the spike threads and the shoe's eyelets are clean and free of debris. Use the provided spike wrench and apply steady pressure. If resistance persists, check for any obstructions.
Poor traction on the track
Verify that all spikes are securely installed and that the correct number of spikes are being used for the conditions. Ensure the track surface is suitable for spiked shoes.
Shoes feel uncomfortable or cause blisters
Ensure you have the correct size and fit. Wear appropriate athletic socks. Break in the shoes gradually with shorter runs before competitive use. Adjust spike placement if possible.
Suede material appears dirty or scuffed
Use a dedicated suede brush to gently clean the affected area. For stubborn marks, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by air drying and brushing.
