Troubleshooting
Reduced grip on wet surfaces
Ensure the outsole is clean and free of mud or debris. The Vibram Megagrip is designed for multi-condition grip, but heavy accumulation can affect performance. Allow the shoes to dry thoroughly after use.
Discomfort or pressure points
Verify you have the correct size and width. Ensure laces are tied appropriately – snug but not too tight. Break-in the shoes on shorter runs before embarking on long distances.
Cushioning feels too firm
The PWRRUN foam is designed for a responsive feel. If a softer ride is preferred, consider wearing thicker socks or allow more time for the foam to break in with use.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: After a run, remove loose dirt with a soft brush. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid machine washing or submerging the shoes in water, as this can damage the materials.
- Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Keep them away from direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, which can degrade the materials and affect the fit.
- Storage: Store the shoes in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, when not in use.
