Troubleshooting
Discomfort during initial wear
This can be normal with new cushioning. Wear the shoes for short periods (1-2 miles) and gradually increase mileage to allow for a break-in period.
Reduced cushioning feel over time
Ensure the shoes are clean and dry. The cushioning is designed for long-lasting performance, but extreme conditions or heavy wear can affect perceived softness. Check for any debris trapped in the outsole.
Slipping sensation
Verify you have the correct size and that laces are properly tied to secure the foot. Ensure the insoles are correctly placed.
