Troubleshooting
Shoe feels too tight
Loosen the laces, particularly around the midfoot, and re-tie for a more relaxed fit. If the tightness persists, consider if this size is appropriate for your foot width.
Reduced grip on wet surfaces
The outsole is designed for optimal performance on dry to slightly damp surfaces. For very wet conditions, exercise caution or consider shoes with deeper tread patterns.
Discomfort during longer runs
The Rival Fly 4 is built for speed and responsiveness, which means less cushioning. For longer distances or if you require more impact protection, a shoe with more substantial midsole foam might be more suitable.
