Troubleshooting
Unusual noise during stride
Check for any debris caught in the outsole tread. Ensure laces are tied correctly and not causing friction.
Discomfort or hot spots
Ensure you have the correct size and width. Consider trying different sock types or adjusting the lacing pattern.
Reduced cushioning feel over time
While designed for durability, cushioning does degrade. Consider replacement after 300-500 miles of use, depending on terrain and impact.
