FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for beginners?
While offering excellent performance benefits, the specialized design is best appreciated by runners familiar with performance footwear. Beginners may prefer a more cushioned, everyday trainer initially.
What is the primary benefit of the tensioned cushioning system?
The tensioned cushioning system is designed to provide exceptional energy return with each step, helping to propel you forward and reduce fatigue over longer distances.
How do I know if I have the right size?
Ensure there is a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe when standing. The fit should be snug but not constricting.
Can I wear these shoes for everyday walking?
While comfortable, these trainers are optimized for running. Frequent non-running use may affect their performance characteristics and longevity for running.
How durable is the mesh upper?
The mesh upper is designed for breathability and lightness. While durable for running purposes, it requires careful handling and cleaning to maintain its integrity.
What terrain is this shoe best suited for?
These trainers are best suited for road running and standard athletic tracks. They are not designed for trail running or very rugged terrain.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight initially
Wear the shoes for short periods to allow them to break in and adapt to your foot shape. Ensure laces are not overtightened.
Slipping on wet surfaces
The rubber sole provides good grip, but caution is advised on extremely wet or slick surfaces. These are best suited for dry to moderately damp conditions.
Mesh upper appears dirty after a run
Wipe clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Allow to air dry. Avoid abrasive cleaning methods.

Compatibility: Designed primarily for road running and track surfaces. Not recommended for trail running or very uneven terrain due to the specialized sole design.
Care:
- Cleaning: Gently brush off loose dirt with a soft brush. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth with mild soap. Avoid machine washing or submerging in water.
