Troubleshooting

Tongue slides to the side during runs

Ensure you are utilizing the double lace lock feature. Thread the laces through the additional eyelets closer to the ankle to secure the tongue in place.

Foot feels too tight or too loose

Adjust the lacing carefully. For tightness, re-lace from scratch ensuring even tension. For looseness, try a runner's knot at the top eyelets for a more secure heel lock. Ensure you are wearing appropriate running socks.

Persistent foot discomfort during or after runs

While the Clifton 10 is plush, persistent discomfort might indicate an incorrect size or that the shoe's characteristics (e.g., heel drop, cushioning level) do not suit your biomechanics. Ensure proper sizing and consider consulting a running specialist.

Reduced cushioning feel over time

All running shoe midsoles compress and lose their responsiveness over extended use. This is a sign that the shoes may be approaching the end of their lifespan and might need replacing. Check the wear on the outsole for further indication.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Initial Setup & Lacing

  1. Unpack and Inspect: Remove your Clifton 10 shoes from their packaging and visually inspect them for any manufacturing irregularities.
  2. Try On: Wear your preferred running socks. Loosen the laces completely before sliding your foot in.
  3. Achieve a Secure Fit: Begin tightening the laces from the forefoot towards the ankle. Utilize the double lace lock by threading the laces through the extra eyelets near the ankle to prevent the tongue from sliding. Ensure a snug fit that holds your foot securely without creating pressure points or restricting movement.
  4. First Run: Consider a shorter, easy run for your initial outing to allow your feet to adapt to the shoe's cushioning and fit.

Compatibility

  • Running Surface: Best suited for road running (asphalt, concrete, track).
  • Foot Type/Gait: Designed for runners with a neutral gait. The Active Foot Frame provides inherent stability, but it is not a stability shoe designed for pronation control.
  • Runner Weight: Suitable for a wide range of runner weights due to its robust cushioning system.

Product Care & Maintenance

  • Cleaning: Gently clean the upper with a soft brush or cloth using mild soap and cold water. For tougher spots, a damp cloth can be used. Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents as this can damage materials.
  • Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or artificial heat sources (like radiators or dryers) as these can warp materials and degrade adhesives.
  • Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Ensure they are dry before storing to prevent odor and mildew.
  • Longevity: While the abrasion rubber enhances durability, running shoes typically have a lifespan of Info needed: [Expected lifespan in miles or months] depending on mileage, running style, and individual wear patterns. Regularly inspect the outsole for significant wear.
