Troubleshooting
Leather creasing or scuffing
Minor creases can sometimes be reduced by using a shoe tree. For scuffs, use a leather conditioner or appropriate leather cleaner. Regular conditioning can help prevent excessive creasing.
Reduced cushioning over time
The Zoom Air unit is designed for longevity, but cushioning can naturally decrease with heavy use. Ensure the shoes are not being used for excessively strenuous activities beyond their intended design.
Traction feels diminished
Clean the rubber outsole with a damp cloth to remove any accumulated dirt or debris that may be affecting grip. Ensure the outsole is dry before use.
