Troubleshooting

Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable.

Adjust the lacing to find the right fit. Ensure you have the correct size. Consider trying a different sock thickness.

Poor traction on wet surfaces.

Ensure the outsole is clean. Be cautious when running on very wet or slippery surfaces. Consider changing your running route.

Cushioning feels less effective over time.

The cushioning in running shoes degrades over time. Replace the shoes after approximately 300-500 miles of use, or sooner if you notice a significant decline in cushioning.

Shoe laces keep coming undone.

Double knot the laces or consider using lock laces to keep them securely tied during your runs.
