FAQs

Are the Nike Metcon 9 shoes suitable for running?

Troubleshooting

Laces come undone frequently during workouts

Ensure you are using a double knot or a secure lacing technique. Check if laces are worn and consider replacing them.

Shoes feel too tight or too loose

Re-adjust the classic lacing system. Experiment with different lacing patterns to accommodate your foot shape. Ensure you have the correct size for optimal fit.

Foot discomfort during training

Break in new shoes gradually. Ensure socks are appropriate for athletic activity. If discomfort persists, consult a specialist for potential insole recommendations.

Slippage on certain gym surfaces
