This shoe is optimized for road running and should be used on paved surfaces to maximize the performance of the outsole materials. When cleaning, avoid machine washing; instead, use a soft brush and mild soap to remove dirt.

Regularly check the outsole for debris lodged in the tread patterns to maintain optimal traction.
