Extended Product Information
FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for a marathon?
Yes, they are specifically designed for distances up to 42km, offering the necessary energy return for long-distance performance.
Do I need to size up for these trainers?
They generally follow standard athletic sizing, but it is recommended to have a thumb's width of space at the toe for long-distance comfort.
Can I use these for trail running?
These are road trainers. While they have good grip, the outsole and upper are not designed to protect against rocks and uneven trail terrain.
How long should the foam last?
The Lightstrike foam typically provides optimal performance for 300 to 500 miles, depending on your running surface and weight.
Is this a stability shoe?
No, this is a neutral running shoe designed for runners who do not require extra arch support.
Troubleshooting
Heel slipping while running
Try the 'runner's loop' or 'lock lacing' technique with your laces to increase tension around the ankle collar.
Outsole feels slippery on smooth surfaces
Wipe the outsole with a damp cloth to remove accumulated dust or debris that can mask the grip of the LIGHTTRAXION rubber.
Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best performance, secure the lace-up closure firmly—but not too tight—to allow for natural foot swelling during long runs. These trainers are built for neutral runners; if you require significant overpronation support, consider using a medical-grade orthotic insert. To maintain the life of the leather upper and foam integrity, store the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Clean the exterior leather with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap if needed, avoiding submersion in water or machine washing, which can degrade the midsole bonding agents.
