Troubleshooting
Shoes feel tight after a run
Feet naturally swell during exercise; try loosening the laces slightly to allow for expansion.
Slippage at the heel
Use the extra top eyelet for a 'runner's loop' lacing technique to lock the heel more securely in place.
Excessive dirt accumulation in the mesh
Allow the mud to dry completely and gently tap the soles together before brushing the mesh with a soft-bristled brush.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your trainers, follow these care and setup guidelines:
- Sizing Verification: Always try your footwear on before finalizing your purchase, as box labels may list US or Euro sizes that differ from your standard UK size.
- Break-in Period: While these shoes are comfortable out of the box, perform a few short walks before committing to long-distance runs.
- Cleaning: Remove surface dirt with a soft brush after your runs. Use a damp cloth with mild soap for localized stains; avoid machine washing or using harsh chemical cleaners, as these can degrade the synthetic mesh and adhesive bonds.
- Drying: Air dry your trainers in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can warp the cushioning materials.
