Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
- Lacing: Ensure proper lacing to secure your foot without excessive tightness. Use all eyelets for maximum support, especially if you experience heel slippage. Experiment with different lacing techniques to find what feels most comfortable and supportive for your foot shape.
- Initial Wear: Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow your feet to adapt to the shoe's cushioning and stability features.
Compatibility
These shoes are primarily designed for female runners seeking stability. They are well-suited for individuals who may experience mild to moderate overpronation, where the foot rolls inward more than desired during the running gait. The 3D GUIDANCE SYSTEM specifically addresses this need, making them a great option for daily training and longer runs on various surfaces like roads and treadmills.
Care
- Cleaning: Gently wipe the upper with a damp cloth and mild soap to remove dirt. Avoid harsh chemicals or machine washing, as this can damage the materials and structural integrity of the shoe. Allow them to air dry away from direct heat.
- Drying: If the shoes get wet, remove the insoles and stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture. Allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature.
- Storage: Store your running shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve material integrity.
- Odor Control: Use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes when not in use to help absorb moisture and neutralize odors.
- Lifespan: Running shoes typically last between 300-500 miles (approximately 480-800 km) depending on your running style, weight, and terrain. Pay attention to signs of wear, such as diminished cushioning, flattened treads, or discomfort, which indicate it's time for a replacement.
