Troubleshooting
Shoes feel uncomfortable or too tight/loose.
Adjust your lacing technique to find the optimal fit. Ensure you have the correct size; this variant is UK 9. Foot swelling can occur during exercise, so try fitting them after a short walk.
Cushioning feels less responsive or worn out.
The UltraBoost cushioning is durable, but all running shoes have a lifespan. Consider replacing your shoes after approximately 300-500 miles of running, or when you notice a significant decrease in comfort and support.
Shoes are getting dirty quickly and difficult to clean.
Establish a routine of wiping down your shoes after each use. For tougher dirt on the sole, a soft-bristled brush can be effective. For the leather upper, use cleaning products specifically designed for leather footwear to protect the material.
A squeaking sound is coming from the shoes.
This often occurs if the insole is rubbing against the shoe's interior. Try removing the insoles, sprinkling a small amount of baby powder underneath them, and then reinserting. Ensure the outsole is clean and dry, as external moisture can also cause squeaks.

Avoid abrasive cleaners. For the white sole, a soft brush and mild cleaning solution can remove scuffs and grime. - Drying: Always allow your shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Keep them away from direct sunlight, radiators, or other artificial heat sources, as these can damage the materials and adhesives. - Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place. Using shoe trees can help maintain their original shape and prevent creasing. - Avoid Machine Washing: Do not machine wash or tumble dry your shoes, as this can cause irreversible damage to the structure, cushioning, and materials.
