Troubleshooting

Foot discomfort or rubbing

Ensure the lacing is adjusted correctly for a secure but not overly tight fit. Try different sock thicknesses. If discomfort persists, consider if the fit is suitable for your foot shape.

Reduced cushioning after initial use

The midsole may need a short break-in period. If performance significantly degrades, check for excessive wear on the outsole or midsole, which may indicate the shoes have reached the end of their lifespan.

Slipping on wet surfaces

While the Super Abrasion Rubber outsole provides good traction, extreme wet conditions can still reduce grip. Exercise caution on wet roads or trails.
