Does the sizing run true?

Troubleshooting
Upper material feels tight
Adjust the lacing pattern to a 'window' or 'gap' lace to relieve pressure on the top of the mid-foot.
Shoe feels unstable on uneven ground
The 1080v15 is designed for road and flat surfaces; avoid technical trails where the high stack height may cause ankle rolls.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your 1080v15 trainers, it is recommended to rotate them with other shoes to allow the foam to decompress. When cleaning, avoid machine washing or drying; instead, use a soft brush and mild soap to remove surface debris from the polyester mesh. Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent premature aging of the midsole materials. Ensure you are selecting the correct UK sizing as per your specific foot profile for the best experience.
