FAQs

What type of runner is this shoe best suited for?

These trainers are designed for female runners with a neutral gait who are looking for support during everyday road running and medium distances (6k to 12k).

What is the main benefit of the BOOST V2 midsole?

The BOOST V2 midsole provides exceptional cushioning and delivers maximum energy return, helping to propel you forward and reduce fatigue during your runs.

How does the Torsion System contribute to performance?

The Torsion System provides stability through the midfoot, allowing for a smoother and more controlled transition from the heel strike to the toe-off.

Is the grip reliable in different weather conditions?

Yes, the Continental rubber outsole is engineered to provide superior traction and grip, even on wet road surfaces.

Can I use these shoes for long-distance running beyond 12k?

While the cushioning is excellent, these shoes are primarily optimized for medium distances. For ultra-marathon distances, you might consider trainers specifically designed for extreme endurance.

How should I clean these trainers?

Gently clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying to preserve the materials and cushioning.

What is the purpose of the moulded external heel counter?

The external heel counter is designed to provide optimized support and a secure fit around your heel, enhancing stability and reducing slippage.

Troubleshooting

Discomfort or rubbing during runs

Ensure laces are adjusted correctly for a secure but not constricting fit. Check that the size is appropriate and there is no heel slippage. Consider wearing moisture-wicking socks.

Reduced cushioning or responsiveness over time

The BOOST midsole is designed for durability, but performance may gradually decrease with extensive mileage. Ensure the shoes are cleaned regularly and dried properly to maintain material integrity.

Traction issues on wet surfaces

While Continental rubber offers excellent grip, extremely slick surfaces can still pose challenges. Ensure the outsole is free from debris and that shoe wear is not excessive.
