Troubleshooting
Laces come undone frequently
Ensure laces are tied securely with a double knot. Consider replacing standard laces with textured or lock-laces for better grip.
Discomfort during initial wear
The Metcon 8 can have a break-in period. Wear them for shorter workouts initially and gradually increase duration as they conform to your feet.
Slipping on smooth surfaces
Ensure the outsole is clean and free from debris. The grip is optimized for gym environments; performance on extremely polished or wet surfaces may vary.
