FAQs
What makes the cushioning in the 1080v15 different?
The 1080v15 features an all-new cushioning technology specifically designed to provide enhanced, long-lasting comfort and superior energy return compared to previous models.
Is this shoe suitable for marathon running?
Yes, the enhanced cushioning and energy return make the 1080v15 an excellent choice for marathon training and race day, offering comfort and support for long distances.
Can I wear these shoes for gym workouts?
While primarily designed for running, the 1080v15 can be used for light gym activities. However, for specialized training requiring lateral support, dedicated cross-training shoes might be more appropriate.
How do I know if I have the right size?
Ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe. The shoe should feel snug around the heel and midfoot without being tight.
What is the expected lifespan of these trainers?
Typically, running shoes like the 1080v15 last between 300 to 500 miles. This can vary based on running surface, biomechanics, and care.
Are there other color options available for the 1080v15?
Yes, the 1080v15 series comes in various colorways, including Black/Green, Black/Grey, and Blue/Grey, catering to different style preferences.
Troubleshooting
Discomfort or rubbing during runs
Ensure you have the correct size and width. Try wearing different types of socks. Break in the shoes gradually with shorter runs before attempting long distances.
Reduced cushioning or responsiveness over time
Clean the shoes as per care instructions. Mileage and wear can naturally reduce cushioning; consider replacement after approximately 300-500 miles of running.
Slipping heel
Check if the laces are tied correctly to secure the heel. Ensure the size is appropriate; a shoe that is too large can cause heel slippage.

Care:
