Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or small.
The Nike Structure 26 are noted to have a small fit. Consider purchasing a half-size larger than your usual size for a more comfortable and accurate fit.
Reduced cushioning or responsiveness over time.
Running shoe cushioning naturally degrades with mileage. For optimal performance, consider replacing your trainers after approximately 300-500 miles of use, depending on running surface and individual wear patterns.
Slipping during runs.
Ensure the outsole is clean and free from excessive debris. For slippery surfaces, ensure you are using the appropriate footwear for the conditions. The versatile outsole is designed for general use, not extreme conditions.
