Foot slipping inside the shoe

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Ellipse v1 trainers, it is essential to allow them to air out after each workout. Avoid machine washing; instead, spot clean the polyester upper with a mild detergent and a soft cloth. For best performance, ensure the UK size 10 fit is snug but allows for natural foot swelling during exercise. If you use custom orthotics, the factory insoles are removable, allowing you to maintain your preferred support profile without sacrificing the comfort of the Fresh Foam base.
