Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable
Ensure you have the correct size. Try adjusting the lacing to find a more comfortable fit. For long runs, some runners prefer a slightly looser fit to accommodate foot swelling.
Traction is insufficient on a specific surface
The Vibram Mega-Grip outsole provides excellent traction, but extreme conditions like deep mud or sheer ice may still present challenges. Ensure the outsole is free of debris.
Upper material feels stiff
The durable technical mesh may require a short break-in period. Wear the shoes for shorter runs initially to allow them to adapt to your foot shape.
Water seeps into the shoe
These shoes are not waterproof. For wet conditions, consider waterproof socks or gaiters to help minimize water entry.
