FAQs
Is the 1080v15 suitable for marathons?
Yes, its high-cushion design is specifically built to provide comfort over long distances.
How do I know if the size 12.5 is right for me?
We recommend ensuring there is about a thumb-width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe for optimal comfort.
Are these shoes machine washable?
No, machine washing can damage the adhesive and the responsive foam midsole.
Can I use these for trail running?
These are designed for road and hard-surface running; they may not provide sufficient grip on loose or uneven trail terrain.
What is the primary material used in the upper?
The upper is constructed from durable, breathable polyester.
Troubleshooting
Feeling of slipping or heel lift
Try the 'runner's loop' or 'lock lacing' technique to secure the ankle area more effectively.
Midsole foam feels compressed after a long run
Allow the foam at least 24 hours to recover and expand before your next training session.
Upper material showing minor creasing
This is a normal characteristic of the polyester material and does not affect the performance of the shoe.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your 1080v15 trainers, follow these guidelines:
- Breaking In: Wear the shoes for shorter walks before committing to long runs to allow the cushioning to adapt to your stride.
- Cleaning: Remove surface dirt with a soft brush. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth with mild soap; do not submerge in water or use a washing machine as this can compromise the structure.
- Drying: Air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, as high heat can damage the foam midsole.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place to prevent material breakdown and odor accumulation.
