Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Loosen the laces, especially around the midfoot where the N-Lock system is located, and readjust for a more comfortable fit. Ensure you are using the correct sock thickness.
Slipping occurs during runs
Check that the N-Lock system and laces are securely fastened. Ensure the outsole is clean and free from excessive mud or debris. The shoe may not be suitable for the specific terrain you are running on.
