Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure laces are properly loosened before putting on. Try wearing thinner socks. If still uncomfortable, consider if the size is appropriate or if a break-in period is needed.
Reduced cushioning over time
The N-ergy midsole may naturally decrease in responsiveness after significant use. Consider if it's time to replace the shoes for optimal performance and support.
Mesh appears dirty
Use a soft brush with mild soap and water to gently clean the mesh areas. Rinse with a clean damp cloth and allow to air dry completely.
