Troubleshooting

Shoes feel stiff or uncomfortable on first wear.

The Adizero Boston 13 may require a short break-in period. Wear them for shorter runs initially and gradually increase the distance to allow them to mold to your foot.

Traction is reduced on wet surfaces.

While the Continental Rubber offers excellent grip, always exercise caution on extremely wet or slippery surfaces. Ensure the outsole is free of debris that might impede traction.

Sizing feels too narrow.

These shoes are designed with a performance fit. If you have wider feet, consider trying a half-size up or exploring models specifically designed for wider foot shapes.
