Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable
Ensure you have the correct UK size. Try wearing them with different thicknesses of running socks. Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring even pressure distribution.
Reduced cushioning or responsiveness over time
This can occur after extensive use. Check for any signs of wear on the outsole or midsole. Ensure the shoes are clean and dry, as dirt can affect performance.
Squeaking noise during runs
This can sometimes be caused by moisture trapped within the shoe or components rubbing together. Ensure the shoes are completely dry. If the noise persists, it may be a manufacturing anomaly.

Care: To maintain the performance and longevity of your Mizuno Wave Rider 29 trainers:
- Cleaning: After each use, brush off loose dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a soft brush or cloth with mild soap and cold water. Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents, as this can damage the materials.
- Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, which can warp the shoe.
