Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best performance from your trainers, follow these guidelines:
- Fit: The shoes feature a regular width and a rounded toe box. Ensure your size provides enough room for foot expansion during long runs.
- Break-in: While high-tech foam is comfortable out of the box, perform 1-2 shorter runs to adapt to the carbon plate propulsion.
- Cleaning: Hand wash with mild soap and cold water. Avoid machine washing or drying, as high heat can compromise the nitrogen-injected foam and adhesive bonds.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent premature rubber oxidation or foam degradation.
- Replacement: Given the racing focus, monitor the outsole and midsole compression; typically, elite racing shoes lose their peak responsiveness after 200-300 miles.
