Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable
Ensure you have the correct size. Try wearing them with different types of running socks. The knit upper may also need a few runs to break in and adapt to your foot shape.
Reduced cushioning or responsiveness over time
Running shoe cushioning degrades with mileage. If the shoes feel less soft or supportive, it may be time to consider replacement, typically after 300-500 miles.
Slipping on wet surfaces
While the ASICSGRIP™ outsole offers good traction, extreme wet conditions can reduce grip. Exercise caution on very slick surfaces. Ensure the outsole is clean of debris.
Upper material appears stretched or loose
This can occur with heavy use or improper drying. Ensure shoes are dried naturally and avoid pulling on the knit material excessively when putting them on or taking them off.
