Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. If new, the shoes may require a short break-in period. Try wearing thinner socks or loosening the laces.
Reduced cushioning over time
The Nitro foam is designed for durability, but cushioning can naturally decrease with extensive use. Consider replacement after significant mileage, typically between 300-500 miles, depending on running style and terrain.
Slipping on wet surfaces
The rubber outsole provides good traction, but extreme wet conditions may reduce grip. Exercise caution on very slick surfaces. Ensure the outsole is free from mud or debris which can impede traction.
