FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for road running?
While the Stealth/Tech Tecton X 2 can handle some road running, they are primarily designed for trails. Prolonged use on pavement may wear down the outsole faster.

What kind of socks are best to wear with these shoes?
Moisture-wicking running socks are recommended. The choice depends on personal preference and the climate conditions.
Can I use these shoes for hiking?
Yes, the Stealth/Tech Tecton X 2 can be used for hiking on trails, but they are optimized for running. For serious hiking, consider a dedicated hiking shoe.
How long will the carbon-fiber plates last?
The carbon-fiber plates are designed to last for the life of the shoe. The lifespan of the shoe depends on usage and the type of terrain.
How often should I replace these shoes?
Replace your shoes when you notice a decrease in cushioning or traction, or if the shoe feels unstable. Typical running shoe lifespan is 300-500 miles, depending on usage.
Troubleshooting

Adjust the laces or try a thinner sock. If the problem persists, consider a wider size.
Poor traction on wet surfaces.
Ensure the outsole is clean. Consider adjusting your stride to be more conservative on wet surfaces. The Stealth/Tech Tecton X 2 is designed for various terrains, however, extreme conditions may impact the traction.
