FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for everyday walking?
While they can be used for walking, they are optimized for running performance. You may find them firmer than a standard walking shoe.
Do I need to size up for the SuperComp Rebel?
They are generally true to size for most male runners, but consider wearing the specific socks you intend to use for training when measuring.
How long should the carbon fiber inserts last?
The inserts are built to last for the expected mileage of the shoe, typically between 300 to 500 miles depending on your running surface and weight.
Are these trainers waterproof?
No, the breathable material used in the upper is designed for ventilation and will not prevent water from entering during heavy rain.
Can I replace the insole with a custom orthotic?
Yes, the insoles are removable and can be swapped for custom orthotics if required for your specific foot mechanics.
Troubleshooting
Feeling discomfort in the arch after the first few runs.
The carbon plate adds structural rigidity. Try shorter sessions initially to allow your foot muscles and tendons to adapt to the arch support and propulsion.
Upper material appears dusty or discolored from road grit.
Gently wipe the upper with a damp cloth and mild soap; do not machine wash or tumble dry as this can break down the technical fibers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your trainers, focus on proper sizing and regular maintenance. Since these trainers have a specific performance geometry, ensure your foot is centered in the footbed to maximize the benefit of the carbon inserts.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry mud or dirt after runs.
- Moisture: If they become soaked, remove the insoles and air dry them naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent damage to the adhesive and foam.
- Storage: Keep them in a cool, dry place to maintain the integrity of the specialized midsole compounds.
