Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable

Ensure you have the correct size. Try loosening the laces and re-lacing them to find a more comfortable fit. Consider a short break-in period on shorter runs.

Reduced cushioning or responsiveness over time

The advanced foam and air units may naturally compress after extensive use. For optimal performance, consider replacing shoes after reaching their recommended mileage limit (typically 300-500 miles for performance shoes).

Soles feel slippery on wet surfaces

The outsole is designed for optimal grip on dry roads. Exercise caution on wet surfaces. Ensure the outsole is clean of debris for the best possible traction.

Care:
