FAQs
What type of runner is the FloatZig 2 best suited for?
The FloatZig 2 is best suited for neutral runners looking for a cushioned and responsive shoe for daily training, covering distances from short jogs to longer runs.
How does Superfloat+ cushioning differ from traditional foam?
Superfloat+ is designed to offer a higher level of energy return, providing a more 'springy' sensation compared to standard EVA foams, while still maintaining a soft feel.
Can I use these trainers for racing?
Yes, their responsive nature makes them suitable for tempo runs and even some shorter races. For longer marathons where maximum efficiency is key, you might consider a more specialized racing flat.
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, the FloatZig 2 trainers are not waterproof. They are designed for breathability and moisture management during exercise.
What is the expected lifespan of these trainers?
With regular use and proper care, the lifespan of running shoes typically ranges from 300-500 miles. The durability of the FloatZig 2 will depend on your running style, weight, and the surfaces you run on.
How do I clean my FloatZig 2 trainers?
Use a soft brush or damp cloth with mild soap to clean the exterior. Remove insoles and clean separately if needed. Allow to air dry completely.
Can I wear these with orthotics?
Yes, the FloatZig 2 typically has a removable insole, allowing space for most custom or over-the-counter orthotics. Ensure the orthotic fits comfortably within the shoe.
Troubleshooting
Reduced cushioning responsiveness
Ensure the shoes are broken in. For persistent issues, check for any debris lodged in the sole or cushioning system.
Slipping on wet surfaces
While the carbon rubber outsole offers good grip, performance on extremely wet or slick surfaces may be limited. Exercise caution in such conditions.
Discomfort during runs
Verify you have the correct size and that the laces are tied appropriately. Consider if the shoe's neutral support is adequate for your foot strike.
