Can I use these trainers for trail running?

Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose
Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. Try adjusting the lacing pattern to customize the fit across the midfoot and ankle.
Reduced cushioning effect over time
While designed for long-lasting performance, cushioning can degrade with very high mileage. Consider replacement after approximately 300-500 miles of use, depending on terrain and running style.
Squeaking noise during runs
This can sometimes occur due to moisture trapped within the shoe layers. Ensure shoes are properly dried. If the noise persists, contact customer support.
