Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Loosen the laces and ensure they are not tied too tightly. If the issue persists, consider the next size up or a wider fit option if available.
Feet feel overheated during runs
Ensure socks are made of moisture-wicking material. The mono mesh upper is breathable, but excessive heat can also be influenced by external temperature and activity intensity.
Reduced responsiveness over time
The Lightstrike Pro midsole is designed for durability, but like all cushioning, its responsiveness may decrease with very high mileage. Consider replacing shoes after 300-500 miles (500-800 km) of use.
