Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable.
Ensure you have the correct size. Try wearing them with your usual running socks. Laces can be adjusted to customize fit across the midfoot. If discomfort persists, consider an exchange if within the return period.
Reduced cushioning or responsiveness over time.
The cushioning technology may have compressed after extensive use. While designed for durability, all running shoes have a lifespan. Consider replacing them after logging significant mileage (typically 300-500 miles) or if you feel a loss of support.
Mesh upper appears to be wearing or tearing.
Avoid abrasive contact with rough surfaces. If minor wear is observed, ensure no sharp objects are causing further damage. Significant tearing may indicate the shoe has reached the end of its usable life for intense running.
