Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable

Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring a snug but not restrictive fit. Consider wearing thicker or thinner socks to adjust fit. If persistent, consult sizing charts or try a half-size up.

Reduced cushioning or responsiveness over time

The cushioning may naturally compress with extensive use. Ensure the shoes are not excessively worn. For best performance, consider replacing running shoes after 300-500 miles.

Difficulty cleaning the metallic finish

Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt. Avoid abrasive cleaners or brushes that could scratch the metallic coating. Spot clean as needed with mild soap and water.
