How long should the cushioning last?
While mileage varies based on surface and weight, the 1080v15 is built for long-term performance, typically lasting between 400 to 500 miles before noticeable degradation.

Troubleshooting
Heel slippage while running
Try the runner's loop (heel lock) lacing technique to increase security around the ankle collar.
Upper material showing light stains
Spot clean gently with a mixture of water and a small amount of mild detergent using a microfiber cloth.
Midsole feeling less bouncy after heavy use
Allow the shoe at least 24-48 hours between runs to let the foam cells recover their shape fully.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure optimal performance, start by loosening the laces fully to achieve a personalized fit that matches your foot volume. Ensure the tongue is centered before securing the lacing system to avoid pressure points. These trainers are compatible with custom orthotics if you require specific arch support. For care, avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as this can degrade the specialized midsole foam. Instead, clean surface dirt with a soft brush and mild soap, then allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators to preserve the upper material's elasticity.
