Troubleshooting
Traction issues on slippery surfaces
Ensure the Vibram Mega-Grip outsole is clean. Mud or debris can reduce grip. Clean the outsole thoroughly after use.
Discomfort during long runs
Verify the correct shoe size and ensure laces are tied appropriately without being too tight. The PWRRUN PB cushioning is designed for comfort, but fit is crucial.
Debris entering the shoe
Utilize the D-ring to attach compatible gaiters. Ensure the shoe's tongue is properly positioned to create a good seal.
Reduced cushioning feel over time
The PWRRUN PB cushioning is designed for durability, but like all foams, it may gradually compress. Regular cleaning and proper drying can help maintain its properties.
