Troubleshooting

Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable.

Check the lacing and consider loosening the laces. If the issue persists, try a different width option.

The outsole is wearing down quickly.

Ensure you are using the shoes on appropriate surfaces (roads, pavement). Avoid excessive use on abrasive surfaces.

The cushioning feels less responsive over time.

Cushioning naturally compresses with use. Replace the shoes when the cushioning feels worn out to maintain comfort and performance.
