FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for marathon running?

Can I use these for trail running?
No, these are designed for road surfaces. The materials may be damaged by sharp rocks or uneven debris found on trails.
How should I clean the white and blue upper?
Use a damp cloth and mild detergent to spot clean. Do not machine wash or bleach.

Yes, this model is designed for unisex wear; ensure you double-check the UK sizing conversion to get the best fit.
Do I need to break these in?
While they feel great out of the box, it is recommended to wear them for a few shorter runs to allow your feet to adjust to the aggressive propulsion.
Troubleshooting
Feeling instability during sharp turns
The shoe is designed for forward-moving speed on roads; ensure you are utilizing proper foot placement and avoid sudden lateral movements.
Foam appears to compress after long usage
This is expected behavior for high-performance racing shoes. If compression becomes excessive, consider rotating them with secondary training shoes.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your trainers, always ensure the fit is snug but comfortable before your first run; avoid using them on abrasive or rocky terrain which can damage the delicate outsole. After use, store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can break down the foam integrity. If the shoes become damp, remove the insoles and allow them to air-dry naturally; never put them in a tumble dryer. For cleaning, use a soft brush and mild soap to gently remove surface dirt, ensuring you do not soak the material, as this can affect the structural adhesives.
