Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for everyday walking?

While wearable, these are designed specifically for high-performance running and may feel too stiff for casual walking.

Do these have stability features for overpronation?

No, the Rocket X 3 is a neutral running shoe and does not include structural support for overpronation.

How should I clean the mesh upper?

Use a damp cloth with mild soap and gently wipe the exterior. Do not soak the shoes or use aggressive scrubbing brushes.

Is the sizing true to size?

The Rocket X 3 generally fits true to size for standard adult athletic footwear.

Can I use these for trail running?

These are optimized for road and track surfaces. They are not recommended for technical or rugged trail conditions.

Troubleshooting

Feeling discomfort in the heel area.

Ensure the stitch-and-turn collar is sitting flush against your heel and try adjusting your lacing tension for a more secure lockdown.

The mesh upper feels too loose.

Use the extra eyelet at the top of the lacing system to perform a 'runner's loop' or heel lock to secure the midfoot.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent energy return from the carbon plate
  • Lightweight and breathable upper mesh
  • Enhanced grip on varied surfaces via sticky rubber
  • Stitch-and-turn collar prevents heel irritation
  • Easy entry due to the removal of the gusset

Cons

  • Neutral platform lacks dedicated stability features
  • Designed primarily for speed rather than daily recovery runs
  • Specialized feel may not suit all foot shapes

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because this is a neutral performance shoe, ensure your gait allows for a neutral strike to get the most out of the carbon plate technology. To care for your trainers, avoid machine washing or drying, which can damage the foam and the plate's structural integrity. Instead, clean the outsole with a soft brush and water to remove debris, and wipe the mesh upper with a damp cloth. Allow the shoes to air dry away from direct heat sources to prevent warping or adhesive failure.
