FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for trail running?
These shoes are primarily designed for road running. While the waterproofing offers protection, the outsole tread may not provide sufficient grip for technical trails.
How do the Air Zoom units and ReactX foam work together?
The Air Zoom units provide targeted, responsive cushioning in the forefoot and heel, while the ReactX foam midsole offers a lighter, softer, and more energized ride throughout the shoe.
Will my feet get hot in these waterproof shoes?
The GORE-TEX upper is engineered for waterproofing and breathability. While no waterproof material is as breathable as non-waterproof alternatives, these shoes are designed to manage moisture effectively for running conditions.
How do I know if I have the right size?
Ensure there is a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe when standing. The heel should feel secure without slipping.
What is the expected lifespan of these shoes?
The lifespan varies depending on running frequency, mileage, terrain, and individual biomechanics. However, road running shoes typically last between 300-500 miles. Regular inspection for wear on the outsole and midsole cushioning is recommended.
Are the reflective details durable?
Yes, the reflective design details are integrated into the shoe's construction and are designed to withstand normal wear and tear, as well as cleaning methods.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel damp inside despite the waterproof upper.
This could be due to sweat accumulation. Ensure you are wearing appropriate moisture-wicking socks. If water has entered through the ankle collar, dry thoroughly and allow adequate drying time.
Reduced cushioning or responsiveness over time.
The foam and Air Zoom units naturally compress with use. Consistent cleaning and proper drying can help maintain their integrity. If significant degradation occurs, it may be time to consider replacement after extensive mileage.
Difficulty putting on the shoes.
Ensure the laces are fully loosened before attempting to put them on. The GORE-TEX upper may feel slightly stiffer than standard materials initially, but should loosen with wear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These shoes require no setup; they are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure you have the correct UK size for a comfortable fit.
Compatibility: Designed for road running on asphalt, concrete, and other paved surfaces. Compatible with standard running socks.
Care:
- Cleaning: After runs, wipe down the shoes with a damp cloth to remove dirt and mud. For deeper cleaning, use a mild soap and cool water. Avoid machine washing or using harsh detergents, as this can damage the GORE-TEX membrane and other materials.
- Drying: Air dry the shoes naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight. Stuffing them with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape during drying.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use.
