Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable

Adjust the lacing using the articulated eyestay for a customized fit. Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. Wear for short periods initially to allow them to break in.

Reduced cushioning or responsiveness

The high-energy foam may take a few wears to reach peak performance. Ensure the shoes are clean and free from debris that might affect cushioning.

Mesh upper showing signs of wear

The engineered mesh has tighter weaves in high-wear zones, but excessive abrasion can still cause damage. Avoid activities that might snag or tear the mesh.

Difficulty pulling shoes on

Utilize the easy pull tab at the heel. Ensure the tongue is positioned correctly and loosen the laces before slipping the shoe on.
