Troubleshooting
Slightly tight fit on first wear
This is normal for new shoes. Wear them for shorter periods initially and gradually increase distance. The shoe will adapt to your foot shape over time.
Reduced cushioning feel
Ensure you have the correct size. If the shoes are too tight, cushioning might feel compressed. Also, check for any debris lodged in the outsole grooves.
Foot fatigue after long runs
While designed for comfort, ensure your chosen size is correct and that the shoe's stability features align with your biomechanics. Consult a running specialist if fatigue persists.
