Troubleshooting
Shoe feels too tight or too loose.
Ensure you have the correct size. This model is UK 9. Adjust lacing to optimize fit. Consider using thicker or thinner socks.
Reduced cushioning or comfort over time.
The GEL cushioning is designed for durability, but performance may decrease after extensive use. Consider replacement if comfort significantly degrades.
Discoloration on the mesh or overlays.
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Clean gently with a damp cloth as per care instructions.
Squeaking sound during walking or running.
This can sometimes occur due to friction within the shoe's components or between the sole and the ground. Ensure the insoles are properly seated. Sometimes, this sound resolves on its own with continued use.
