FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?

What is the main difference between the 'Black Grey' and other colourways?

How durable is the N-ergy outsole?

Troubleshooting
Laces feel loose after wearing
Re-tie the laces, ensuring a snug knot. Consider using a double knot for extra security.
Slight discomfort during the first few wears
This is common as the shoes break in. Wear them for shorter periods initially and gradually increase wear time. Ensure proper lacing for support.
Scuffs on the grey accents
Gently clean scuffs with a damp cloth and mild soap. For stubborn marks, a magic eraser can be used with caution on non-mesh areas.
Reduced cushioning effect over time
The cushioning is designed for durability, but its effectiveness can diminish with extensive use. Consider replacing the shoes if significant wear is apparent.
